For those that may not be aware of who actually built the E Cobra Jet electric cars as well as the E COPO Camaro, it's Divison 6 Comp, SS and Stock racer Jeff Lane, along with Patrick McCue and the Hancock & Lane team.
Job well Done.....

The problem with this vehicle is most tracks don’t have 440 3 phase to charge it quickly!

Electric equals quiet. Pretty much takes all of the fun out of drag racing for me.

I don't know the actual drive to. The wheels, but I believe the power goes thru a transmission and rear gear, like a conventional ICE engine does in these cars, unlike a Tesla. So burn outs and wheel stands are still do able.
No open header noise nor Race gas smells of course. Maybe one can play loud Engine RPM sounds and have a race gas soaked rag in the car for effect.

Any car at the track helps keep the sport going and tracks open for all of us. A GOOD thing.

If you are looking to keep the tracks open it will have nothing to do with a electric car, electric cars for the most part will not be the way of the future ,it will be Hydrogen contrary to the wind bags !

When Lane was testing the car, they used a 220 single phase gen between rounds
