(3,538 posts)Just not for very long. And at pit stops they have to wait 5 hours to recharge, so that would be a long intermission.
If Im not mistaken, the 1/4 mile drag racing records are blow out of the water by electric cars.

(32 posts)As an African/Native American man it really makes me feel good to see such unity coming out of a sport that Ive always thought of in my 57 years as being a white.
Ive seen the confederate flags at those events when I had a chance to see a race. And a handful of people of color.
Watching that video made me feel almost as I did when Obama won
