Just realized tyhat you are still picking up the benefits of regenerative braking in ICE mode, and thoeretically improving brake response when slowing down. I feel like a lot of folks slept on the Smart ED, but I'm coming into year 10 and it's still a little go cart that's fun to drive.

Glad to hear yours is still going strong. I'm also happy I finally got my design done, and after driving it I believe it will extend my range past 100 miles since it barely uses the EV while in ICE mode and I have 2 gallon tank with 40mpg. So 80 miles gas, 50 miles EV

@@HandyDan Seems like a reasonable weight trade off for a hybrid. Some assembly required.

Oh noes, but having e-drive still on tap is like having instant insurance on tap. Aaa in your back pocket.

Good to see it back on the road. You have a lot of time on that project! I forgot, now do you control the clutch? Also, are you thinking of a slipper clutch or something like a recluse clutch? I think we talked about those before.

@@The-BCC This car is a mind blow! It is funny having two separate drive systems. The sprocket drive has failed 3 times during the design course and I just drive home on EV. And now that the Gas drive is solid, if the EV goes out, I'll drive home on GAS... I have the foot pedal clutch, I don't want an "Automatic" Clutch.

@@HandyDan ok, I was thinking you may have had a hand clutch. The recluse clutch is a centrifugal and can be rpm adjusted. I don’t know of issues with them. I have one in my Ktm 950 adv that that’s been raced. It’s a popular item in the dirt race world.
