Mr. Ed, the drive torque increase in this style of motor is also seen in the back EMF and drag braking effect. You don't get a stronger drag feel at the wheels, it feels much the same as a normal set up in that respect.
Believe me, choose the right motor and there would be more than enough torque to light up the tyres on a touring car without any gearing needed. But, you would certainly need the integrated diff as that's really important for the touring car. As you say, making that whole assembly narrow enough, and developing the appropriate drive electronics would be real challenges - but surely a lot of fun too.

For God's sake Mark, can't you stop going on about the regulations and the '12th section'? This is about experimentation and trying different ideas, not winning world championships or even competing in national events. Someday, maybe this kind of thing will be popular and allowed for racing. I think we all know it isn't right now.
