I always thought you wanted to minimize, not maximize, the unsprung mass. So putting giant hub motors on would kind of defeat the goal, no?

- michaelrpeskin 3y agoI remember watching an interview with a monster truck engineer and he said it was challenging suspension design because it was the only motor sport where the unsprung weight was greater than the suspended weight. It’s a while different approach.
- spacecadet 3y agoInteresting! The tires are very heavy! and they aim for many traditional motorsports goals, lightweight and fast...
- spacecadet 3y agoThats my joke, would love to see a vehicle of that design, I imagine its dangerous but funny? Would fit right into monster trucks.
