I feel sorry for the Torvec team. Obviously they blunder right along instead of taking all the super advice that floats around this board. Imagine how shocked they were to get a letter from actual racers. After all, for a while and maybe even now, some posters doubted the existence of any race car actually using Iso-Torque units in a race. LOL.
Oh well just because more racing teams want Torvec tech to go for the gold, just because NASA is happy and moving forward with the world's most efficient IVT, that doesn't really mean anything because look at the stock price. Right? I mean there is no way this company is going to break out in a big way, soon.
I guess a year or two is a long time for some things, but for others it's really SHORT. What was it, 2 meetings ago when the Iso-Torque was a colored CAD rendering? I think if Jim had said, 'In 2 years, racing teams are going to be clamoring for this', many people would have said he was blowing smoke.
At this point in the story, I don't care how small Torvec is, I don't care how minimal the perceived marketing is, I don't care how arrogant or abrasive anyone thinks Torvec people are. When you look at how quickly the inventions are prototyped, tested and incorporated into manufacturers vehicles, you have to be impressed. Unless you are a SHORT or a competitor. Maybe they are getting lucky, maybe the cosmic forces are lining up right, or maybe the machinery is actually that good and that well engineered. So good, so cost advantaged that even a reluctant, not invented here industry, doesn't really have an easy alternative.
As far as the price, look at Apple from the time it was a pre-split $25 a share. You will notice that for years prior to that it could not break out, even after selling hundreds of thousands of iPods. One analyst started to tout it, they had a good quarter and the rest is history. I'm a crazy cheerleader who doesn't make any sense, but for what it is worth, I'm really going to enjoy the ride up with this company. Even if it is holding on to a tiny bit of tailfin. I've said it before, Torvec has never had this much positive hits going on, they are well positioned to do a variety of positive business moves, and most importantly there are several breakthrough inventions ready to go, not just one.
I understand the critics, maybe they even have some good points and maybe the shorts have been very clever in the past, but I'm happy to see good engineering start to emerge after all the games. The past is littered with companies who tried to coast on the status quo instead of spending what they should have for R&D. Seems to me that the market is demanding the most efficient vehicles with the highest quality possible. Sooner or later every OEM has to take a long serious look at Torvec because they offer, efficiency, less weight and complexity, less tooling time, and more durability. To the Moon, baby.
