Oh god. Imagine a car powered by uranium...
Now I'm picturing the ensuing turn 1 carnage after a Fallout car explosion.
Lol there wouldn't even be a circuit anymore. Hell, the entire city would be wiped off the map.
imagine an F1 car with an Orion drive
I mean...assuming it would be smaller than the track...
Weirdly enough it would be very slow. Or supersonic in pieces in one direction once.
True. I'd love to see the materials science that would be required to pull that off. Right now, battery technology...isn't great compared to the advancements humanity has made in electricity generation the past twenty to thirty years or so. That, and the current bulk of battery materials are either ethically problematic (e.g., lithium), quite toxic (e.g., nickel), or both (e.g., cobalt).
