Skip in to 5 mins for the figures.
And then look at where it makes peak torque
These things will kill anything on the road and this is early days for this type of technology.
There was one at Saturdays RWYB at TOTB at the weekend.

Definitely a superb looking car, and it was rolling off 11.0s 1/4 miles very consistently, with even more impressive 1.6s 60fts !

Standing 1/2 mile speed pretty poor at 137mph though, maybe battery ran done lol

Very nice car though
