Very alternative I must say, but it does sound electric. I expect there will be positive and negative charges.

Jesus. I thought you were joking about the Tweets bit!

The noise = 50% of the attraction of motorsport for me.

Therefore, the best motorsport is drag racing. If you ain't been, go. It is literally jaw dropping.

Lots of pretty good drivers and big names involved in the teams. Not sure it will last, but will be interesting to see. Will prob tune in this w/e to check it out, and if it's decent might try and go to the GB race in June...

Watched the race this morning, miss the roar of the engines and the sounds of the electric motors is very annoying but what a fantastic crash on the last corner of the last lap by the 2 cars that were way out in front with one driver ending up perched on his head stuck in his car.
He got out ok and walked away

here is the crash

Surely if they were wind up cars they wouldn't need to be electric.

Not gonna lie, that was pretty good.

The lineup of drivers is quality.

Life size Scalextric.

That can only be a good thing.

Yes, I agree with you on that. I was never overly fussed about motorsports until until Mrs. Tree dragged me out to the Monaco grand prix: the noise and the smell totally changed my opinion.
