I mean they could probably build a electric today that would outrun a Top Fuel or Nitro Funny Car. But that sound, the someone smacking you in the chest feel of raw power is what attracts me. F1 was putting on these battery powered races and that did nothing for me.

May be the future. who knows, as for racing, meh.
