And some of you honestly think that the Electric motor will kill the aftermarket? I think it has the potential to make it even stronger. Yes you won't be upgrading internals and using turbos or superchargers, but you will still be doing things like upgrading batteries or using more powerful motors. Take a look at electric R/C cars, they are easily just as capable in every aspect as their Nitro powered brethren. Give it time and the full size electrics will be on the same level as gas powered cars performance wise.
Im into r/c and its amazing what the lipo batteries are capable of. Whats even more mind boggling is that the Tesla motor is basically an enlarged r/c motor
