What an absolute waste of good engineering know-how. After all the time and
money spent, the guy could have had an EV for every member of his family.
With his resources and ingenuity, those EVs could have been developed to
cruise at 70 MPH and have a range of 200 miles or more between charges.

Instead, he has developed something that cannot be used, other than an
occasional drive around some race track with no other vehicles anywhere
near. All he has really accomplished is to find yet another way to burn
fossil fuel, contaminate the atmosphere, and add noise.
