Michael,
A quick search turns up https://www.thunderstruck-ev.com/ . They have graphs
for both their AC and DC motors which might help.
You also might visit the http://endless-sphere.com/forums/index.php motor
forum. There seems to be a lot of discussion on smaller motors.

Hi Cliff,
Thanks for the info, it is very beneficial.
The info about the current ICE engine has come from the manufacturer so i
would assume it was rated at the flywheel but I do not know for sure.
I am definitely going to consider multiple motors for this design, it seems
the be the cheaper option as high torque racing motors i have found cost
$20,000.
Torque vectoring is another thing I want to look at, the car will need some
form of traction control and if a controller can be found in good price with
torque vectoring then that would a bonus.
I did also see that ETH Zurich won the event last year with their electric
car, quite the accomplishment. However, looking at their website, it says
that they spent 3 years designing it and they designed and built 4 hub
motors for the wheels. Some serious team work going on there!
Do you know of any good websites for purchasing motors?
Many thanks,
Michael
