The Plaid is insane.

I have spent most of my career in the EV business and things are just getting started for the EV supercar market. That said, they are not nearly as fun to hammer on as an ICE car.

Awesome.

Low 9's with a street car.

Usually when I watch a drag race video, my wife says "turn the volume down"! She never said a word with this one

That's like watching weeds grow in my yard...totally uninteresting.

Yeah, it's fast....but the almost complete absence of sound doesn't cut it for me

I am guessing that the first equestrian rider to lose a race to an automobile complained that the auto didn't make horse hoof sounds.

Pretty darn sure that even Bill would get used to the silence after nailing that pedal on the right a few times. We all resist change. Human nature. To me, fast is fast. If they can make it handle well (I don't know) in the twisties, I am in.

And lots of people still like riding horses.

I like riding horses. I wouldn't dream of commuting to work via horseback.
