It's a boat, too. Like a St. Petersburg retiree's Lexus, until you nail it. And make sure stuff's nailed-down when you do, or you'll go full Jackson Pollock w/the Grey Poupon on lil 'ol Garfield stuck to the back window! Kinda silly, but it's a good weird - you'll laugh w/it and at it ...

There’s something about having all the torque the motors offer the moment you peg the pedal.
Wiley E. Coyote would have caught Road Runner in this car.

EV performance back in 1969 140mph- Autolite
Technology has brought us a long way, but there were pioneers testing the potential decades ago....

Meh. Not sure what I think of EV's to be honest. I think there is potential, but I hate the lies that underlie the entire deal. The electric to charge them has to come from somewhere and the belief that they're so much better than ICE vehicles when factored from the materials and the needed electricity over time just annoys me.
Maybe if they were put on a fair and level plane with ICE vehicles, I'd appreciate them more. I also am not a fan of the range situation and definitely suffer from range anxiety. The synthetic fuel idea that Porsche is exploring is another alternative that is very intriguing.

9.08 I think the the current best for a Plaid.
I'm not a fan of the bland styling of Teslas, but it's pretty amazing what sort of power this model can make. Taycan is much cooler looking, and 10.20's is badass... Too bad this model Taycan is over $200K.

We now live in the realm of showroom-stock vehicles that require an NHRA-mandated parachute. Never thought I’d live to see the day but then again I’m a dinosaur that will always have one foot in the past with difficulty accepting new technology. How long before an AARP member drives one of these off the dealer lot straight to an NHRA National Event and qualifies for Super Comp’s 8.90 index class?
