Just saw that story yesterday, very interesting read. The white zombie electric Datsun still does 0-60 in 1.8 seconds. I wonder if the aerodynamics of the vehicle chosen is affecting the 0-60 of this electric racer?

Weight on 0-60. This record is all Mustang specific. DC systems in series are powerful but not very practical off the track.

John Wayland and his White Lightning are part of this story (and part of the team). And from the looks of things, his personality fits like a glove. "...who a lot of people said was a sandwich short of a picnic..." :lol:

Also, clearly, manufacturers haven't jumped into the market very quickly. If there was money to be made, I would have expected a greater selection by now. If I want to buy an EV in my state (WA) today, my only choices are a Mitsubishi, BMW, Nissan or Tesla. Given the high cost of the BMW and Tesla, and the low quality of the Mitsubishi, there really is only one choice. VW, GM, Kia and Ford are all claiming that their vehicles are on the way, but they sure aren't showing up very quickly.
