Doesn't the E-shaft get into problems with flexing when it's that long? Video is ******* though.

Doesnt when the shaft is a 3 piece...like that car has.



The holes are directly related to the peripheral porting process.



I'm ******* astonished that the thing ONLY has 560hp.

there are bearings added to the intermediate housings on that motor.



that shaft probably has less flex than the one in your 2 rotor.
