you have an LSX powered vehicle, so per my previous point, it would be senseless for me to race you in anything of mine, as i do not have an LSX powered vehicle. plus,the only car that i have in any sort of race form is the DSM, so you would have to spot me 3 or so seconds to make it even, plus another half hour for me to stop and fix things at half track...as it is a DSM...

It is fake, I used build race engines for gopeds and used to race them when there was the racing sanctions. There is no possible way to get a goped that fast unless you strap a jet engine to it ahah. There is no suchthing as a GRZ43 stroker reed valve motor. At 23000 rpms, these little heads are super prone to cracking down the side on the transfer ports. Hell youre lucky to push 19-21k without them cracking or siezing. And these gopeds are direct drive, at least the ones in the video. so whatever specs they put for clutch and 4 speeds,is a lie. theres no room for transmission and clutch with these lil scooters. And notice they have like three different scooters in the video, the first one with an g230rc and then they show the nitrous lines on a stock g23lh. and the one in the video sounded stock.

Jeez ,I get so tired of spotting everyone 3 second leads like ROTM asked for.Nice repost on the video. Always cracks me up when he flips off the LS1 and purges the N20. I'm a little embarassed for you guys for the debate on if it's real or not Though.

+1

It was proven fake several years ago, and the persons in the video admitted to it. However, unless they did some serious sound-clip editing, that go-ped has at least a 3-speed transmission because it clearly shifts twice.

My favorite part is how everyone is so quick to believe that you can run nitrous effectively on a 2-stroke motor...

I find it much more effective on 4-stroke lawnmowers, myself.

All kidding aside, it would just take a lot more effort. You can't simply "hook it up" like on you can (for smaller shots at least) on a car engine.

these are nitrous injected 2-strokes that are purpose built for speed
