Im not entirely sure that race footage is real, how could the go-ped avoid spinning its wheel and or looping out? I think the race may have been BS and they sped up the tape. Still awesome though, even if it cant really beat a WS6.

yeh it definitely wasn't a full-on race, that scooter in no way could have handled as much power as the WS6 could put out with that type of engine plus the 150HP nitrous shot. Sweet-ace scooter none the less.

That was great!

Depending on the clutch used, the gearing, and the horsepower to weight ratio it could be real. I think the scooter would only keep up for a short distance though. Overall the car is gonna go faster than a go-ped givin enough road. Reminds me of the go-karts I used to race. I used to dust cars all the time in that thing. Of course it was a racing machine, and built to go very quick (There is a difference between quick and fast). I would top out at about 80mph though due to gearing. 100cc 2 stroke motor, centrifugal oil bath clutch that didn't kick in till 10,000 rpm and racing slicks. Fun fun!

yeah I have no doubt that the go-ped could possibly have the power to weight ratio to beat the WS6, I just dont see how it could possibly put it down. It had no wheelie bar or anything, and the kid ws standing straight up. Loopout city.

I'm very doubtful of the ped keeping up. Nitrous on peds have been around for a while but going over 40mph? It's been some time since i've hit up Gopednation to see what's new on the scene.

uh, i am pretty sure it is the blowoff. You don't usually go sprayin nitro everywhere, it is injected directly into the cylinder with either an injector or a fogger.

I dont see how the guy did'nt lose control of the front tire... the tire was skinny and small. Going that speed which looked like 60-80mph the tire is gonna wobble and anyone would wash out. Maybe it had like mini sway bars on it though. Although I bet it would be a nice rush to go that fast on a scooter with just 2 inches between you and the ground.

tha car doesn't have a turbo yo. So what the hell is it blowing off?





And nitrous can be bad for your car in certain conditions. Like if you don't know how to use it

ummm yeah this is embarresing-i used to RACE those-a decent one costs about 3000 to build. top speed on is about 50 on a air tired, chain driven one(as apposed to the solid tire, spindle driven). They are alot of fun to mess around on.
