What? No more jokes about really long extension cords, and how heavy batteries make this all impossible?
But, but it's too complex, would never work on a race car?
This was going to happen, it just took some time.
In the future all electric is going to shatter even more records. |
What the heck are you talking about? Antone that has watched the LeMans races, or F1 knows full well that hybrid power systems have been around many years and are fast. This is no street car, it is a purpose built record breaker.
Porsche did it long ago with the 917-30 after it was retired from racing.
