vw electric set Pikes Peak record

A lot happened this past week. The VW e-car sports the giant wing as at that elevation the air is 35% less than at sea level.

The Back of the Dragon has a switchback the type as you see on this video. Both the Back of the Dragon and the The Snake have 10 MPH corners but the the straights leading to them is no where near as long.

I need Scottie to make me a transporter larger enough to get and my car to and from places like these in a snap of my finger . . . . .
