21V*2200kV=46200rpm.

46200/8=5775rpm (at wheels).

5775*60=346500rph (revs per hour).

4.5"*3.14159=14.137155" (tire rollout, inches).

14.137155"*346500=4898524.2075inh (inches per hour).

4898524.2075inh/12=408210.350625fth (feet per hour).

408210.350625fth/5280ftm (feet per mile) = (drum roll) 77.31256640625mph.

Did you get all that? Pop-quiz tomorrow......
