Re: Electric Drag Bike...Damn that's fast...

dude, that is sweet!!. That is so bizarre not hearing any engine noise. Since technically "motor" refers to an electric power generating device, is that the only true drag MOTORcycle?

Sounds about right...

Kinda like how all squares are rectangles, but not all rectangles are squares.

I think a big reason we don't have many motors powering our vehicles is because we can't supply enough "juice" for those motors. An electric motor, however, would be most ideal for quick acceleration because torque goes to infinite when rpm is 0 and gradually diminishes as rpm increases.
