From what I've heard, the electric flows more at idle. (plus you can run it while the car is off too...)

So that makes it very well suited for drag racing, to keep the temps down while sitting in the staging lanes.

But I've heard it flows less on the top end, which can cause some cooling issues for road racing.


I would think it would be fine for autocross because of the limited time on the course.
