I would not understimate the effort that might get directed in that direction.
Looking at some of the dollars and masses involved in current attempts they could have road side forklifts and a ready to go battery change every couple hundred miles.
It is what I had to do, in scale, when racing electric against gas RC.
They could probably make a cooridnated battery pack hot swap faster than a conventional fuel station fill up in your mustang.
It'd take huge expendature, but crazy money and time investment is already being spent on the cannonball already.
Afterthought, is the cannonball about driving it?
Any rule I don't know about that they couldn't pony express it?
Team going from an prepped car to prepped car at each stop.
$$$, but hey, winning is winning.
