Surely they weren't doing the test run at night? With Lucas around they should 
have considered buying a longer extension cord. :^)

Hi,

Reading the Sunday newspaper I came across the following headline:

Electric Car shorts out, fails in try at topping 300 mph

Would it surprise you to learn it was a British team making the attempt in
Nevada? The "e=motion" car is 34 feet long, carries 52 batteries, and has
two electric motors capable of 500hp each. Lucas wasn't mentioned by name
but it sounds as if the Prince of Darkness was in the pits.
