This little race car for the strip is almost like 1:1 scale electric car. The advantages of having electric power is that 100% of your torque is available from the first moment you touch the throttle.
The car has killer starts but doesn't seem to have the legs later on. Anyway, a 9.61 second quarter mile pull is pretty much unheard. It even outpaces a Ford Mustang for goodness sake. Give the guy a V-shaped battery pack, he deserves it.
We're sure there are plenty of haters who don't want to see electric dragsters. But this isn't about being green at all (that tire smoke could kill an elephant) it's about poweeeeeeeeer.
Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
