Still as an old drag racing buff there is something really sweet about the sound of a big inch V8 spinning up 8000 rpm.

EV's can kick but in drag races and truck/tractor pulls. http://www.designnews.com/article/277418-Drag_Racing_Goes_Electric.php

I know. Electric motors provide top notch low end torque, provided the wiring and controllers can provide maximum inrush current. And a good electric motor whine is not unpleasing to the ears...still V8s spinning up 8Gs are REALLY SWEET.
