Re: New e-racing
That doesn't look pretty. Racing stick insects. Needz bigger wheels and a seat.

Re: New e-racing
I think it's good, you could have these racing round parks in towns and cities without offending people (on an organised closed course), motorcycle racing is great to watch but noisy, get rid of the noise and it becomes a lot more sociably acceptable.
Living near a Speedway track I'm all in favour of electric speedway bikes.

You could have an app on your phone that plays an engine noise as they go past, you could listen with headphones.

Re: New e-racing
4-5 minute races might get a bit boring, more time between races than racing. They could do with more range, like a petrol tank would provide.

Tis a good point from the cheese. The primary complaint about racing and race tracks is noise after all.
