Steal hummingbirds? That’s legal in New York?
NOT “green”, battery powered. All of the pollutants are on the front end, and the waste stream. Gives the appearance of being “green” allowing libs to feel good about themselves.

Well that makes my leg feel tingly and warm like suffosed two when said events coincide... Hope they are charging up batteries with clean nuke Power.

In Seattle they have electric car drag racing; they accelerate faster than fuel dragsters and a higher end speed.

Let’s see them do the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the NASCAR Daytona 500 or Coca-Cola 600 against the fuel burners.

I had fun with a neighbor who'd just bought an electric Smart Car (LOL! "Smart Car" - the name itself is an oxymoron). Our conversation went like this:
Me: "So - what's it run on?"
Him: [proudly] "It's an all-electric!"
Me: "Ah! So it runs on coal."
Him [sputtering] "No...no! It's electric powered!"
I then broke it to him that the juice he gets from his outlet comes from the power company, which is coal-fired. He wasn't too thrilled to hear that.

......And they run clean and green..... Yeah! Right! Those batteries have to be recharged! Where does the power for recharging come from?
Why,...From Those old "polluting" power plants!
I guess they didn't consider that!
Nitwits!

"and a higher end speed"
Do you have a link for that? All I found is 185 mph cars that were somewhat ironically cooled with dry ice.

How many folks remember the Indy race cars with
turbine engines?
They were so fast, they ran away from the rest of the field -- but were a flop.
Why? They were too quiet!
~~~~~~~~~
"Whissshh" was a flop.
Does anyone think, "Whizzzzz" will be a bigger hit with serious racing fans?
~~~~~~~~~
Maybe spoked wheels and playing cards... '-)
