Electric drag racing?

[Gtxxjon]

As one of the lucky peeps who have grown up in the era of ICE etc.

The up and coming era of electric drag racing is upon us (maybe)?

I see electric cars running mid 8’s something I never achieved with an ICE engine, tens in fact.
(Yes it was a Rob Loaring ICE engine lol)

So if any of us are thinking of returning to the new concrete track at the Pod.
Should we be thinking EV...?

Dodge Hellcat is one cool Mopar but...

The faceless EV of the future, fast but soul less...

And quiet enough to run you over, without you even knowing what hit you...

Like most things in the modern era, it’s not for everyone lol.

I am a signed up dinosaur (as well) and still believe in the sacred Hemi lol.

A few Moparmates have switched to the mighty hemispherical with various results?

Back in 1964 the 426H was a world beater!
(It still is in its modern configuration)

But most of us are in the “wedge club” due ‘lack of wedge’ lol...

I was an engineer from school and in later life told I was “becoming redundant”...l
“You need to get trained up in electronics”, so I did!

That was in the 80’s and I still hate electrics lol...

So for me it has to be iron, steel and aluminium.(no copper windings or bearings)

The only electrics l need is to fire the plugs...
