Sorry, is that a joke that I’m not getting?
Haha, no I didn't mean that at all!!

I meant that the gear ratio for the small front motor is 10:1 while rear motor is 9.5:1.

The rear motor gearing is 9.05. The RWD and AWD have the same speed limit, very likely due to tire speed rating.

In theory, electric motors have no rotational limits. But in practice, friction and power limits the top speed. Anyway, no one drives that fast on public roads. I find sarcasticlly funny the 120 to 150 makers on dash odometers, making low speed markers inaccurate which is much more needed than the top speeds.

Oh, that Pony graphic is close to what I have on my current 2017 Mustang. Would love to match it on my Mach-E. Ford if you are listening.... :)

Oh, for reference...

They should have added some wider tires and wheels. Next to the Cup cars it looked silly on those skinny tires and the ground clearance looked much higher than normal. I did notice on the in-car shots of winner Brad Keselowski they had plenty of Mach-E stickers everywhere.

My nearly 88 year old mother saw the pace car during the race yesterday. She just asked me: "Is your new car going to have the pony on the side like the pace car?"

Surprised they didn't use this as an opportunity to roll out the GT.

Maybe at the Michigan race in August. Funny that there is only one on the schedule in Michigan and two at out of the way Pocono.

LOL Steve is *considering* ordering stickers online for sure just to appease his mother. Other family members... Well they may not like them.
