I am building a motorcycle powered by a car engine and I'm considering
using a car tire
.......something like a drag bike with wide slicks at the rear wheel.

How is the driveability of such a setup?

I'm sure it'll work with straight roads but when it comes to the
numerous twists and turns around the country, I'm not sure if there
will any traction problems.
