Very cool! Must've been quite the ride for the driver... YEEEHAA! Amazing how much crud the car lifts up off the surface... heck of a rooster tail behind it. Also surprising how bumpy the surface was... wonder if the driver lost any fillings.

It would be cool to see an electric-powered race car compete in one of the big races, like one of the 24 hour races...
