Eh, I don’t know about that.  It might be usable in the sense that it has street manners, but I’m guessing it doesn’t have any kind of battery capacity to be used in any kind of average commuting.  And the Demon is basically a 9 second IC car already that’s plenty driveable on the street.

A top fuel car would be hard to beat with an electric setup, I think. To get the same HP (over 10,000!) in a package that small and light would be near impossible. But a top fuel engine runs on the edge of possibility, so who knows?

If everyone will drive electric cars in the future, why do we have to worry about this?

Need to overlay some coordinate frames so I can better understand how many damn axes she’s spinning around.
