E-dragsters go for gas-powered records

Post by Lancer »

Interesting aticle about how far along electric motors have come and thier future in drag racing.http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/200...E1vAI619 pound electric motorcycle that does the quarter mile in 8.22 seconds at 156mph. 0-60 in just under 1 second. The KillaCycle runs on 990 lithium-ion battery cells that feed two direct current motors, generating 350 horsepower.Who needs MWR? I'll just throw one of these in the vibe!
