Given that electric motors achieve 100% horsepower at initiation, you’d think they would have a bigger chain (or possibly shaft drive). Titanium-alloy racing chain?

Just proved that you know nothing about traction and racing slicks.

"Just proved that you know nothing about traction and racing slicks."

From his post it is clear he is talking about energy transfer from the motor to the wheel and not, as you thought, about energy transfer from the wheel to the ground. So, traction and tires do not come into it, yet…

Before you try to belittle someone’s post, make sure you understand it first.
