Don't forget another important time-and-distance metric: time to go 1/4 mile. The street-legal White Zombie's 10.24 quarter mile should more than counter any snickers about EVs being golf carts for old farts. Yes, EVs are vital for stemming the tide of resource exhaustion and pollution, but they're also poised to dominate racing applications. And wouldn't you rather see races be electric -- _and_ see those races convince testosterone-poisoned teenagers to go electric, too?
