Where I work we have fuel cells for several projects, a few that have been custom built for us, a bunch are from ballard. The mk902 has proven fairly reliable and is currently in a few of the projects. The mk902 or a variation of it is most likely what will be available in fuel cell powered cars. The nexa has been used for a few of the 1/4 scale models.

There are a ton of parts for Electrics right now, I have a whole folder of places to get the "top-notch" parts. Twenty or more if you ask me.
Get some sent oil and rub it on your electric motor, then you will have something of a smell. That is if thats what floats your boat. I use nitro smell oil from my rc car store, "coconut"! Electric will never get as fast as my bike though! Oh ya you ever hear a Electric motor turning at over 30krpm, that sounds better then even my ride at just 8k-9krpm...

Guess your gem is running like crap then, 8-9krpm is just after when the clutch engauges.

Re: electric pocketbikes are horrible!!!!!!

I have both electric and gas, and to me it is apples and oranges. But I will say this, everybody who knows me knows I can tune a gasser pretty well, but when the e scoot was done and I broke it out, the jaws dropped. Needless to say, I am no longer the only guy I know with e power...

Re: electric pocketbikes are horrible!!!!!!

I really don't know, as mine is a stand up scooter. And since it was my first electric, I figured start simple and make each project a little better than before. Since the race season is starting in about a week all my projects will have to be on hold for a while.
I did mod my neighbor's Razor and it is def faster, but I wouldn't put it on a track. It has crappy little tires and only a rear drum brake - no fronts. I think a good rider on a properly setup ebike would be able to turn some pretty fast laps, but until somebody actually gets out there and does it, it is strictly theory.

I'll tell you at the end of May. Mr exon challenged one of our beloved ohioans, Frank Toth to a race. Frank is an extremely fast riding riding three bikes, blata 4.2, DM super proddy and a DM 40cc open. Frank will be riding one of his three bikes in this race, Exon picks which bike. We will see whos first off the line, fastest on the straight, and of course fastest around the corners.Yes it will be on video.
