Due to the weight, I doubt a GTR could have discs big enough to work as well as Lotus brakes, you'd need 40 inch wheels!

Like all race-cars, the Formula E guys probably throw away the battery after each race ,like Formula 1 used to rebuild the engine every race. Someone once said the perfect race engine blows up just as you cross the finish line, it has absolutely no more weight or strength than needed to win that race.
