******' awesome. Just awesome. Thing is, it must be pretty inefficient to need a recharge after every run. Regardless, it's fast as hell and I'd like to know what he 60s.
About not polluting.. I wonder where they're electricity is coming from. If it's hydro, cool, but coal plants puff out smoke like it's going out of style.

Camouflaged to look ordinary?
That car moves out, but the trap is really low for its ET.
The other thing that they don't address is that the car runs those times partially because it ways so little. The only problem with that is electric motors aren't light with all the batteries they need.
It's a Datsun (Nissan) Jay...

I think with the right gearbox that thing would have a much higher trap speed. Pretty cool! Wish more people would do stuff like that!
Kinda confused as to why he only made up .4 seconds after ditching 700lbs and gaining a claimed 100 more hp.
More info/specs would be nice.

I also don't see why he needs someone else to drive it to these times. It looked like he just stabbed and steered it after the burnout, looks really easy to drive.
