Traction is a real problem for cars attempting these fast 0-60 times. Requires perfect pavement, perfect temperatures, perfect tires. On regular streets with Michelin Super Sports my Corvette struggles for traction at times and that is with 460 hp. The Z06 with 650 hp is much harder to get grip with tires slipping even with traction control on.

What does a drag racer do in the 0-60?

I suspect there are going to be a lot of dead rich guys in a few years that crash these cars.

That is a lot of carbon black released into the air for a “zero emissions” vehicle.
