Two Electric Car Motors at a Time

Can you use two electric car motors in a conversion at one time?

Hi, Joe!
Sure you can. The White Zombie has two motors, which is how it keeps breaking those electric drag racing records and dusting the britches of the V-8 muscle cars; )

I like how the controller and computer interface (who named it the hairball, anyway?) can change the wiring of the twins from series to parallel in like 300 milliseconds to give it a whopping voltage boost once it's gotten off the mark. Imagine laying rubber and squealing tires at 80 mph, huh?

Brilliant!

Regards,
Lynne
