Thinking about the times i realized the VW electric car beat the fastest ICE (internal combustion engine) vehicle ever on the track by 5 seconds, the only car faster than it has both a ICE motor and a electric motor (hybrid)

6:11.13  Porsche 956  Stefan Bellof  28 May 1983 he got this  racing, in the qualifying rounds...
6:05.336 the speed if the New VW EV.
So the first serious attempt of  a electric race car and on the toughest track in the world on its first attempt beats the best time of a ICE  by 5 sec's...
The car wasn't even built for this track , it was made to race on Pike's peak  and was modified to do Nürburgring

It looks like it was even having problems , slowing down ..

As it's been said , EV's are still just starting to get fast and Batteries look to be the main hinderance with weight and overheating.... so as these are addressed expect exciting times in racing....
