I prefer gas myself, but thought this was interesting.

Thanks for sharing. 11.55@110 is pretty impressive.

 

Damn that thing is quick.

 

There are about 3 or 4 fast electric cars in the Portland area. It looks like it is shot our of a cannon at the line.

 

Anybody know what the Tesla's e-car runs down the strip?

I have a friend that works at a Junkyard, and he just picked up a del sol real cheap. They already have an S-10 running on electric, and they are gonna put an even better setup in the honda. Im curious to see it. Sounds awesome.

 

Wow!

 

There was one of these goofy looking things at the Summit ET drags at Infineon yesterday and bone stock with paper plates still on turned 14.4/14.5 all day long. Surprised the hell out of me!!

It says they do the 1/4 mile in 12 seconds at 120 mph and 0-60 mph in 4 seconds.

 

Maybe but the one I saw at Infineon only did 14.4. It is a slow track though.
He was also a crappy driver and never did stage right. Once it got rolling it looked pretty fast. It is the craziest looking thing. Really narrow and tall. I expected it to turn a 29 when I first saw it.
