problem is the supply. you hammer it like that and your batteries are dead in a few minutes. I was on the Formula Lightning electric racing team in college, it was pretty cool stuff. 1200 ft/lbs of axle snapping torque off the line, but every few laps you had to swap the batteries... Might get you to work, but its not getting you home. But regardless there are some cool things being down with the technology.

Take an evo, convert it into an electric car, and then see how many loud exhaust tickets you still get

If only we could make smaller batteries that held more energy...oh well. Until then gas powered combustion engines will be the only cars worth racing! =)

hmm....I read in popular mechanics a very nice electric car. I'm at work so I don't have it in front of me, but it looks like a very nice exotic car.
