Goped Speed Validity
Ok, guys, did you read the goped running 100 mph? Do you believe it? I calculated to go 100 mph in the .25 mile weighing 180 lbs total you will need 16 HP. (and proper gearing, of course) Comments? This scares me b/c I figure a damn goped with nitrous could beat my car!!

I believe it. I would imagine that 16 horse should be obtainable with Nitrous. I was actually guessing around 25hp when I saw the set-up but what do I know about weed-wacker engines. I think this is for real, and I seriously want to know where I can get one and how much $ I have to lay down for one.
