    As said before, the only "off track" motorsport that electric cars could work is Rallycross, and hyperquick charging ala Porsche;
    Up to 270 kW using its 800-volt architecture to achieve a range of up to 100 km (WLTP) in 5 minutes under optimum conditions.
    100 km WLTP is around 5-10 km of race regime...

    270 kW charger is nice thing on paper. Now imagine you need to charge dozens of batteries at the same time at the same place. Would you build a power plant in the service park or how are you going to do that?
