9.09 and he towed a generator to keep charged! Who says electric cars will kill drag racing?

The Rimac Nevera does it in 8.6 and apparently is fine to potter about in, the weird and wonderful McMurtry Speirling did a 7.97 on normal race track asphalt using 2wd (but 2 tons of fan downforce) it's absolutely silly.

I was thinking one of the Fords, either Mach e 1400 or Cobra Jet 1400 hit 8.20 and 168?
Thought it was in Hagerty's Drive magazine but had no luck finding a link to post.

Edit: found a link, but not the one I was thinking of.

A buddy of mine in the car club just bought a Tesla Plaid. And he gave me a ride, it was simply amazing how fast and smooth the car is. And he showed me a funny mode the car has. After you outrun somebody, you can engage celebration mode to rub it in. https://youtu.be/0kFMhjNNUSo
watch to the end.
