Force went a track-record 3.645-seconds at a stunning 343.16-mph in her Monster Energy dragster, shattering the speed record of 341.85 she just set last Sunday in Seattle.

We're getting to the point that people are going to get hurt... That's some serious speed !!

Also amazing: reading in the latest C/D that a stock Lucid sedan will do the ¼ in the 9's  :o

The thing I find funny about that is how many of those owners do you think are comfortable or capable at that speed?  Probably not many.  The only reason it's okay and sort of safe is due to the massive amount of safety features. 

If there was a vehicle that capable in the mid 90's in stock form, so many owners would die.
