You are right.....it was weird watching them do donuts and burnouts with absolutely NO NOISE!!!

They said their 0-60 times were consistently 3.2 seconds and range was 125 miles on a full charge!!

Original 427s were in the 2600 lbs range.

Electric motors make instant torque. The off the line accelleration is like nothing you've ever felt. And, yes it's weird to blast off with no noise!
