not a hint of wheelspin , very cool.

Thinmint on this site was building an electric S2000 with something like 1,200 ft lbs of torque or some crazy figure like that (using 2 motors). I haven't followed his progress in a while but that would be absolutely nuts if it ever worked as intended.

Saw this a couple of days ago. Tried counting out how fast he got to 65-70mph when he usually calls out their speed. 3ish seconds, pretty ridiculous.

There's a bunch of videos on youtube of this beating 911 Turbo's, Aventadors, and various other super cars.
It's pretty awesome.

And if you youtube P85D vs [insert super car here], there are lots of impressive videos. I think the weirdest thing for me is the complete silence of such raw power.

They should pipe in a digital exhaust note lol, it just doesn't sound right without a sexy exhaust note that normally comes with cars in that speed range. No shifting and no exhaust sound makes it seem odd.
