One drive for efficiency and performance.

Really? Wow, I wouldn't have thought that... I can get better performance out of one bigger motor than two smaller motors?
I am seriously considering an HPR 06 and while I have seen a couple of single motor setups on the HPR, the vast majority of them are twins. Those european guys who run them seen pretty serious about speed thats why I assumed that the twin would be faster.
Let me ask another question; I believe the HPR was designed with two motors in mind, would I be opening a can of worms trying to set it up with one?
Either way I have a feeling that bout is no slouch. I have yet to find a slow HPR on youtube.
