Now I'm confused. Like you I thought all the things you listed were in play. I thought that the IVT was tested in two different trucks and different engine systems. I thought the results were pretty clear for everyone to see, if they watched the Tahoe do the EPA accelleration test on the dyno. I even thought I saw the FTV actually driving around a mudhole, over big boulders and smoking a Jeep that thought it could go off road too. Apparently the two Z cars on a race track were vaporware. There are no machines that can make a NEW CV joint, because 'all they have are some patents' that aren't drill bits.
LOL. Don't you doomers think the G's have been there, done that, with OEMs and dog and pony shows? Do you realize that they KNOW OEMs up and down the line are going to throw EVERYTHING they have at an outsider? Revoluntionary tech threatens a lot of fat and happy managers. Knowing that is a prime reason for careful, exact testing. Knowing that is a reason to continualy improve all the hardware/software. Parts are designed to handle overspec because there are a lOT of people who do not want to have to throw out their metal for Torvec. At least domestically. Clean sheet people in a hurry or people at the cutting edge who realize the value of questioning everything are way WEST of here.
But some of us are smarter than the Chinese and Japanese. We wouldn't be visiting and riding and asking questions or donating anything, because we know it's all a bizarre scam based on worthless patents. Like the G's we've all dealt with AUDI on deals that incorporated our engineering and built factories in Argentina to make a unique differential (Torsen) that was used in many different vehicles by many different manufactures. Like I said, LOL. EOM.
