Bill Nye the Science Guy shows signs of brain damage

Bill Nye has finally lost his mind. As a fan of all auto racing I try to picture the Daytona 500 run with all electric cars.

Nye brags they would be faster, but how much faster can a NASCAR racer get? They are already pushing the limits of most race tracks.

Also, the most stupid thing Nye could not imagine is going 500 miles at nearly 200 miles per hour, and how long the pit stops would be. A full recharge even with the most currently (pun intended) available high speed charge would take well over two hours. Guessing a range of 75 miles per charge at the speed expected, that 500 mile race would take days. Imagine a race lasting maybe 30 minutes followed by a 2 plus hour intermission for recharge, or assuming a drop in battery pack, a 10 minute break, what a boring race.

Mr Nye, go back to your lab and leave NASCAR to the professionals.

And what fun would a race be without the roar of high revving internal combustion engines.....bunch cars going wooosh, BORING

[sevlex]

I wonder if he is aware that accidents involving electric/hybrid cars are considered hazmat events.

........zzzzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ..................

That's the sound of an electric racecar zzzzipping by.

Yup, boring.

[Sherman]

Nascar is already boring. I compare it golf and tennis. World Rally Racing......now that is cool.

Considering he had a natgeo special with an "expert" who claimed all life on earth would be extinct in 30 years I think he's well past "brain damaged".

[FunkyPertwee]

He literally is a science "guy", as his degree is merely a B.S. in mechanical engineering.

[BISHOP]

My wife says he has deree in geology.

But remember the show wad Bill Nye the science guy. Not Bill Nye the scientist.

He's an idiot, they wouldn't be faster because they couldn't finish the race without running out of juice. What are you going to do, pit every lap for a battery change?

[ltorlo64]

While electric race cars does not help his case for sanity, his political leanings and support of President Obama and especially his re-election show the depth of his insanity.

How about the fact that producing brand new electric cars and generating the electricity to run them causes more c02 emissions than just running the gas ones?

This is so true. I laugh when King Barack brags about free energy when talking about solar and wind, but fails to mention the energy cost of building and maintaining windmills and the insane levels of energy needed to produce very inefficient solar panels for "free" sunlight.

King Barack Insane Hussein Twinkle-Toes Take Orders From Hoes Maobama does not know the simple law that states, "Energy cannot be created nor destroyed."

And Bill Nye currently goes by the alias Bill Nye the Psycho Guy.

There was a tv show called Living with Ed.
It was a reaity show wit Ed Bagley Jr and his wife.
Ed is a California liberal greenie wo puts his wife through hell trying to sv the world while using olar panels and chemical toilet.
His neighbor is crazy Bill Nye who has much more $$$ than Ed bt still can't get everything "green" to work.

BISHOP

Yeah. Both of them compete against each other to see who can be the "greenest" in everything they do. It's a contest of idiots.

[deth502]

i have to be the odd man out here and say that i do think we are at a point where the tech is there to make an electric car that can run a 500 mile nascar race faster than a gasoline car.

i will not however, argue the points that it will be "safer", better for the environment, fun to watch, or that bill nye has not gone full retard.

[FunkyPertwee]

One positive thing I know about Bill Nye is that he works on his own house. I saw some show where he went into his crawl space to put in some insulation or some shit and you could tell that wasn't his first trip under a house.

Nothing is more boring than golf or basketball...... I turn the tv off and paint a little then watch it dry, way more exciting

Now THAT would be exciting.... watch for an hour to see which pit crew had the best recharger...

Just fill the battery compartment with Energizer batteries and let the drum-beating bunny take it from there.
