Interesting background info, and an amazing run over 150mph in an electric 'Stang

That's pretty damn impressive!
I prefer my 6cyl over an electric Stang though...

came across this video just now and glad to see it has been posted.
regardless of not having the sound, which we all love, 0-60mph in 2.4 secs would be an extraordinary sensory overload.
i guess thats kind of like riding the big dipper but without leaving your lunch on the person behind.  :lol:
when a 3 month engine rebuild turns into 3 year bare metal resto.
you get that .....

Sort of like watching the television with the sound turned off - something is definitely missing.  :lol:

With all that electricity, maybe they'll be able to generate a V8 noise to keep us petrol heads in heaven. :thumb:
