Red face Re: LiFePO4 Batteries

Maybe I could calculate a function to solve for the battery "percentage" and the range of the vehicle. There will be 10 amps of reserve, enough for about 5-10 miles, depending on your driving style. Also, if I add regenerative braking, I shall add more range. Also, since these batteries will be weighing in at about 100 kgs, do any of you know of any high power, commercially available motors that will bring this 200-300 kg car to 60mph? I was looking at this: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...ner_Motor.html
However, it required a very high voltage (52 volts) at 250 amps! that's a lot of juice! The batteries won't provide enough energy for more than maybe an hour of runtime, dropping the range to about 60-100 miles!
