The Isle of Mann TT race has an EV race; but it continues to have many more IC motorcycle races. The bikes are fast, but not as fast as the IC bikes. And the race is only one lap since 32 miles is reaching the EV bikes’ range limits. There is sound, but much less and not at all the same.

If NASCAR wants to try short EV races, and then the big boy races, it might work.

I could see EV drag races, utilizing the zippy acceleration that EV's have.

To your point, not just short races (as in fewer miles, say 100 miles), but on short track races, perhaps EV's would excel at that. Again, the zippy acceleration utilized when coming out of curves.

Of course, NASCAR would just figure out a way to implement an EV version of restrictor plates in the name of "equity" or whatever. LOL
