I just realised that the starting grid would be rather quite before the green light. Very weird

No. It would be mandatory for the riders to all scream out 'Brum, Brum, Brum. BRAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHMMMMMMM, BRAAAAAAHHHHHHHMMMMMMM, BRAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHMMMMMM, BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHMMMMMMMMMMMM, BRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHMMMMMMMMMMMMMM, BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM, brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmm, nananananananana. BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM etc etc. ;D

Well, the race would have to short. 5 laps i reckon, or the format could be different, ie not fastest, but who can go the longest....

True I'm a sparky too and used to work at a power station and if you've ever seen the rate that the coal goes into the furnaces (about 10 kg per second!) you'd realise also that electricity is not the way to go until we get serious about solar.

+1, also the fact about how much earth minerals, mining, chemical cleaning, etc, to which follows contamination, erosion of the land, waste prodcuts. We will need to consume on a mass basis to convert over to full electric, just like we do now with conbustion... we need a change but that aint it. - chris
