This week an engineering team from Brigham Young University broke the world speed limit for an electric car in the "E1" racing class at the Bonneville Salt Flats.
200 MPH
The Buckeye Bullet holds the top speed for all classes with a speed of over 300 MPH, although in the 1900s the Baker Electric Car was capable of 120 MPH.
Almost nothing was faster, which was fairly impressive once you see the Baker Electric Car.
No one believed in aerodynamics back then, when a car had to be high enough for a driver with top hat.
Zroom indeed.
