ICE muscles cars on the race are dead, as simple as that. People will have to accept it!

It just isn't fair.  EV's need to be banned from the race track!   ::)

Electric motors will usher in another "muscle car" era similar to the 1960's.  When quick charging stations are on every corner, range will no longer be relevant.  The only thing that will matter is who can put the most kilowatts to the wheels in the quarter mile.  I predict a retro '69 Charger or Shelby Mustang released around 2020 with enough torque to pull a train.

Just bring a truck-load of money.   ;)

Anybody click through for the intro video? It's pretty good.

I've gotta' go visit these guys, they're right up the road from me. Maybe I can get 'em to build out one of the classic sports cars I've got (literally) laying around...
