Man bart, your really start to rag on anything thats not blown and/or fast down the 1/4. You better be careful or people might start to mistake you for one of those knuckle draggin v8 rednecksDattodevil wrote:Bartman wrote:I'm prepared to wager that if you took that exact same car and spent on it what he's spent on batteries computers and the electric motors, on a gasoline engine then it'd go faster.
If they ever get smarter battery technology, then electric would be the way to go. All this climate change bullshit going around at the moment makes me ill. If they really gave a shit then they'd invest all the money that they are squandering at the moment by shifting deck chairs on the titanic, in getting the boffins to develop better batteries. There is unlimited free energy on this planet, we just don't have an efficient means to store it yet.
The biggest issue is the precious metals that are required to make the electric motors, are scarce and expensive to mine.

He also did not say how the power was supplied by pouring tons of coal or oil into a power plant miles away then transporting over wires that lose most of the power put into them so it's the old us of a if i can't see it it's all good .

I took this photo a few years ago when I did a roadtrip across America.
This was just north of Daytona Beach. The next pic I took shows my speedo on 85mph, as he's still pulling away from me (quite rapidly), in almost torrential rain!!!
