With motor sports moving hard and fast toward electric drive, a friend recently told me that electric drag-car racing just wouldn't be the same without the deafening roar of combustion engines and the smell of "nitro" fuel. One of the things I'll miss about combustion-engine cars is how easy it is to calculate their efficiency.
