they only showed this racer. I could care less about the mpg although it is impressive

Is that a flux capacitor in the passenger seat?
If so I'd like to go back to 1986 and meet up with the jerkoff senior at a red light with the 5.0L Mustang.

Flywheel that stores break energy which can be used to provide a power burst of about 200hp.
