She’s already built her own electric street bike, her father is a mechanical genius and her husband is the guy behind Killacycle, the quickest EV on the planet.

Electric death tube anyone? Somehow that cage seems like it would be just about perfect to build a HUGE electric field that would zap the absolute crap out of you. Plus, how does she get out when it crashes? Other than that, you go girl.

I wish her all the luck in the world.
But with a bike that small, there's no way she's going to do 400mph.
400 requires somewhere near 2000hp, which is a LOT of batteries.
I've seen people try for 400mph with better set ups, and fail.
400 KPH is more likely.
