Big Daddy Don Garlits is currently working on a total electric dragster. It's not quite as fast as a Top Fuel car.....yet.
A big part of drag racing is the sound.
Isn't Indy going all-electric?
They are going some kind of hybrid, the electric part is some kind of power booster for passing from what I read. They can only use it so many times in a race.
That's why I said yet. It may never reach TF speeds, then again, as it improves, it just might one of these days. Better motors and batteries being developed all the time.
I didn't mean to challenge or offend you, Bama. (My wife will testify, communication is my weakest suit. ) In my own clumsy way, I agree, technology is growing exponentially and "they" might catch us sooner than we expect!
