Along with the need to draw more amps than our breakers provide, the ability to accelerate hard enough that your tires rather than your motors are the limiting factor, the ability to turn controllably without losing velocity, the assumption that nobody would get in your way while you lapped, etc. It was all just a thinking exercise to figure out the absolute fastest laptime possible. The next step would be to constrain it so that your power output is less than 120amps and see what happens then.
