> Insane acceleration to get up the ramp

It climbed the ramp very slowly. It doesn't require insane acceleration at all, just a reasonable amount of power at the wheels combined with a fan that can hold it to the track.

Sorry, I'd only heard a 0 to 60 mph in 1 second and assumed. =[

I suppose the Fast and Furious guys are work shopping a scene around this.

If you have not watched the ramp video, I really recommend it. It's very impressive, even if it doesn't make any sense in a consumer vehicle.

It's copying the McMurtry Spéirling - a production race car that can also hold it's own weight upside down via the same fan mechanism.
