I have a friend building a pinewood derby car. he wants to put a motor on it and make it super fast. He was asking me for ideas so I found a dual shaft 12VDC motor online that he could just put wheels on the ends of the shafts and a 250V capacitor. I was thinking we could just charge the capacitor all the way up to 250V (~20X the rating of the motor) with the megger and discharge it across the motor. My thinking is that the motor should have a quick burst of crazy speed (20X the rated speed) and then promptly run out of juice which is exactly what he wants. I'm thinking that since it's all so quick, there won't be time for the motor to burn up. Am I thinking right, or am I going to roast some good parts?
Thanks
