instead of making one engine drive all four wheels, why not have two engines that drive each pair?

Been done before, look up Fiat Bimotor
I remember this one guy who built his own car with two v8's, one to each wheel
He couldn't get the car to move under its own power
would two 3s-ge's really weigh more than a block v8?
with big enough tarbos you could easily make 400whp out of each engine giving you an 800whp awd monster machine
yes they would? its not just the engines, its everything that goes with them as well.
2 engines
2 gear boxes
2 cooling systems
2 radiators
2 fans
etc etc
twice the maintenance, twice the pain. FUCK THAT
why not just be like a train and have a engine charging an eletric motor
electric motors are pretty fast and easy to maintain
so you want to make a mr2 with an engine in the frunk making it awd?
been done at the LE-MONS race.
sounds sick
I'll have to try to find it

Been done before. Also see the MRolla.
Is this really what we've become
It might work the only issue is size, the battery's are fucking huge and the motor needs a lot of room.
How would that even work? No two engines are exactly identical so even if you hook them up to the same throttle won't one be trying to spin the front wheels faster than the rear wheels, or vice versa?
It doesn't seem like they'd work well together
weebs have an inherently low IQ
How do you think the NSX works? Its ICE engine drives the rear wheels and two electric motors drive the front wheels.
Hurst did it with one of their drag cars. They could never get the wheels to turn at the same RPM
