One question though.

What if you have to drive in a hilly area like in the rockies or something. How is that thing going to get out of its own way on steep grades?
Maybe someone could work it out... we know the GT has 50hp and weighs about 1000lb. Add a 200lb driver, calculate for a 10% grade for 1/4 mile and see how much work would need to be done to get the vehicle up that grade. Mind that such a calculation would likely not account for inertia, and would consider the car stopped at the bottom of the grade.
