someone should setup a turbo 911 vs that car

lol, since they are comparing technology, at least use the best from porsche in that series vehicle.'

EDIT:

damb, just read some more info about that car. Freakin fast, just doesn't go for very long.

It was raining so I'm guessing the Porche probably had more trouble hooking up. And of course the electric has to recharge for 12 hours after the race. :P

One drawback, batteries. Need better power supplies, but the potential is very promissing. Oh yeah that video is amazing, never thought an electric car could take a Porsche!
