The name of the all electric sports car maybe "Tesla" anyway if You go to site it gives a good education on electric power all the time. The thing that impressed me was 0 to 60 in 4 seconds. What really impressed and this most likely could not be applied to H2 case but, they explained that with electric mode you get 100% torque instantly as well as HP. The torque deal is what would help H2's off roading.

Now how to apply this tech. to Hummers will take easily someone allot smarter than me by a long shot. Concept is just extremely interesting. I do not know how much powertrain breakage would increase so hopefully that would be dealt with in design.

The short coming would be distance as the sports car can go about 250 miles i think it said before needing a charge and that included lead footing it allot. I think with the use of braking to generate charging to batteries which is already a working technology as well as a small 4 cylinder or 2 cylinder to charge batteries etc. could make system work on a monster like the H2. The car has 2 forward gears with no clutch needed to shift gears.
Maybe all a pipe dream but, there are enough smart people that this could be made outside GM think tank. Use a 2003 H2 wih real high miles or maybe a donated H2 then some electric car specialists with Hummer engineers or just sharp vehicle people who own a H2 to help.

If it got serious with proven engineers in these fields I would be an investor to a company that developed this drive train system. We would allow it to be used for anyone that wanted conversion. I mean a for profit company not a donor company "not for profit" if you know what i mean.

Most likely pipe dreams but, with gas going to go up again and oil likely to hit $100 a barrel then not likely to come back down anytime soon. This is some info that I get in discussion with friends in the oil and gas industry. They are so sure that they are going back and cleaning out wells that have not pumped since early 1900's, they buy mineral rights then if it will pump 5 to 10 barrels a day they are being put back into production. So far they have not had a restarted well that has not pumped less than 20 barrels a day. It takes a whole heck of lat less money to restart the old wells than drill new holes.

Well just some of what i thought were interesting facts i learned over the last 60 days. I thought the info may be interesting to others that collect info of what seems to be useless knowledge as a hobby like I do. It just keeps some of the old cob webbs cleaned out also just by helping me think of what if or even maybe looking at doing some of this stuff.

Nuts I know but, it is what my friends tell me is what makes me me. Buds tell me they are good at taking someone elses idea and figure how to develope a way to market it but, for the life of them they cannot come up with some of the stuff i do. The electric stuff is not my idea but, an applicaion to H2 as Buds said had not crossed their minds. I only thought it feasible due to some new generation batteries that are getting near to being introduced to the world.

Well enough is enough!!! I promise the men with the little white jackets are not coming for me. Dragon will tell anyone I'm always thinking of stuff outside the edge of the envelope then asking him to sit down with me and discuss if he and the shop boss can look at this to see if we could do it. So they sit and look at me like i just came from outerspace or the shop boss goes nuts instantly with hey let's start working a model or mock up. So i know if i should drop it or continue to motivate them.
