hi,
I've been toying with the idea of converting my mini cooper to an electric car, and I'm brainstorming ways to reduce the weight as much as possible. I came up with the idea of a carbon fiber frame to replace the heavy steel one, I found a company that can do it for me, but I was wondering if my car would handle the way it was meant to with the much much lighter frame? I have no physics knowledge beyond a high school level, so I thought I'd ask the experts...any help would be greatly appreciated
