And no helmet to top it off
Pretty sure there are several all electric drag cars. I'm thinking a old RX-7 or 323 or something running 10's.
I've seen an all electric first gen Mustang as well.
What a case of whiskey throttle.
Start with RC, same stuff, (Brushless motors, ESC, Lipo batterys) just smaller and cheaper:

You gonna let Jim ride on the back? You know he's got his heart set on it.
I was watching some YouTube videos about this fellow who owns a street-legal electric car that was breaking record after record on the drag strip. The amount of torque they put out is very impressive. The owner also switched the battery pack to Li-ion and this dropped the weight the by 700 lbs and shaved almost a second from his quarter-mile run.
I have to admit, these electric vehicles got me thinking about buying a Nissan Leaf and taking it to Bandemere on the weekends... :-)
