Does a Prius with passengers climbing a 6% long grade holding a long line of traffic behind come to mind?
We actually have long (10-15 mile) 6% climbs out here. I assure its not the Prius holding up traffic, but rather the person inside the Prius. Granted, the Pruis may not be able to pass a line of slow cars going up a 6% grade, but it can hold its own just fine.
I REALLY hope they sell the 1.0 EcoBoost as a crate motor. Oregon allows both home-built and tube-frame open-wheel "Race Activity Vehicles" to be registered and driven. I would love to stick one of those motors in an ultra-light open-wheel car.
