Dragging a knee isn't the goal. It's a byproduct of using proper riding form and body positioning. If you have your body and weight in the right places and are going around a turn at a speed that requires enough lean angle, your knee will touch down. Most riders use it as a gauge. On the track, knowing how far your leg is sticking out with the knee on the floor tells you how low you have the bike and how close to the limit you are. On the street, like I mentioned above, I use it as a gauge to let me know if I'm pushing harder than I should. If the knee is down, I should back off a bit.
