From a blog post discussing electric cars and their place in NASCAR -
If NASCAR goes electric, CNN wonders, will fans stick around? Do they love the roar or the engines or the speed at which the cars move? Will they be satisfied with one but not the other?
One commenter has his finger on the pulse of humanity
I am 100% sure that as soon as the first crash happens and all you can hear is the car being shred to pieces accompanied by the death cry of the driver that fans will not want to go back to gas engines.
