The electric MegaWatt eventually running a 6.6s pass in this run on the unprepared strip.

What happened the busa?
The Hayabusa turbo car runs an autoshift system when you hold the up paddle up (it will upshift/flatshift at the pre-programmed RPM for you). However, it had an intermittent/loose connection on the paddle so the vibration triggered this constantly which meant the system thought it was asking for multiple gears at once - hence the multiple short-shift.
Annoying, and now fixed, but either way it wouldn't have got to the 6.6s the electric car did!
Ha! EV got that lightweight Screamer xD
Then again it was quite predictable the EV would Win anyway.
