Very cool. I'm amazed though, if it does 0-100 in 8 seconds that it only does 12.1 1/4 mile. I'm not really an expert on 1/4 mile timings, but I'm sure it should do better than 12.1?

He says 8.8s

Maybe that timing was done under different conditions/tyres than the 1/4 runs.

But with the lack of info, its hard to say.

Either way, its a cool little car. Power numbers do seem a little optimistic though.
