[NSRCA-discussion] For Electric eyes only.. lol

[Phil Spelt]

As I understand it, there are two options for the "braking power 
energy savings systems": the electric one, and one that uses a 
flywheel to store the energy generated via braking.  There was a 
article in the SAE Automotive Engineering International magazine 
several months ago.  Unfortunately, I toss them after I read them -- 
too much paper accumulates otherwise.  I'll see if the SAE has it 
available on the web site if anyone is interested.
