I humbly stand corrected, they are absolutely running respectable lap-times.

Was gonna joke that they're almost as fast as a tuned Honda Civic, but frankly, I'm impressed that folks are out there in those things at all.

Cheers to the All Electric Hot-Shoes... More budget for tires, cuz they're saving money on race fuel! Wonder if they have to bring their own generators for charging?

Here's a portion of the time chart from "FastestLaps"

FYI, The gentleman Will Wattanawongkiri is pretty stinking fast in everything. Fastest lap posted overall is a 1:37.55.

On the other hand, the big downside is: they can become an incendiary bomb. Under certain conditions, they can instantly burst into a super-heated combustion that firefighters can't put out, as it keeps reigniting.

Hopefully, Musk's new "100 year" battery will eliminate this, as well as the controversy over mining the raw materials build it.

The "Million Mile Battery" is based on Nickel rather than Lithium.

I wonder what this guy could do.
