Propably isnt the best place to ask, due to it refering back to cars...
But I need a motor that can power a car that will weigh 70-85 pounds with out costing an arm and a leg. DO you know of one? Would like to use in inrunner too.

I figured it would be best to use electric because as long as the motor and esc can handle it, I can just keep playing with A123 or lipos till it has the proper power.

in the automotive field we have this cart that has a stater motor in it that is belt driven and geared down to push disabled cars across the lot and into the shop. It is powered by a single car battery. it wieghs well over 100 lbs as it has to be heavy to push the cars and not sit there and spin. It has a big push pad shaped like a plow and is about 24 inches wide it sort of digs down under the bumber and lifts the car not off the ground but upwards to be able to push. its strong does not bog down when pushing even a pickup truck.
