Nextfest: Electric "KillaCycle" 0-60 in under 1 second

There is a story and video on the below linked page of the electric motorcycle that is claimed to get from 0 to 60 in under a second. The creator attempts a burn-out demonstration, but the bike hooks up and shoots away rather quickly:

Apparently the creator/rider is OK.

FYI.

Best,

Kurt

Darwin Award also-ran. At least this guy was wearing all the proper safety clothing/helmet for demonstrating the bike's performance.

The guy went 8.16 at Firebird. That's pretty stout.

Here's his response:

Entire area in front of the bike was cleared of people. Concrete
barriers on both sides.

We had not intended the bike to even move.


Oops...but it did.
