I won a few races with this just for fun. Really, I laughed the entire way around Monza skipping through the chicanes and eating the penalties. What I found is that it coasts forever, so if you accelerate in short bursts it'll carry for quite a while. It's still a challenge, but it's just laugh-out-loud fun!
Until it isn't anymore because of the battery life . . .
I don’t really care how poor the battery life is when it’s this fast and you can fully recharge the battery in the same amount of time it takes to refuel a gas tank!
