Is This The Future of Motorsports?

I hope not!  As a race fan, I'm offended by Nissan posturing this Leaf NISMO RC concept as a zero emission race car.  0-60 in 6.85 seconds and a 93 mph top speed?  20 minute run time in race conditions and a 30 minute quick charge?  That makes for a longer pit stop than the actual race!  This race car can't even out perform a stock Tesla Roadster!
*SIGH* See it on display at the NYC auto show.

P.S. to Nissan:  When I see RC, I think REMOTE CONTROL.  Except scale R/C cars can actually out perform this thing.
