For everyone that thinks what they see in a race video on the internet is gospel, check this out

:shocked2:
I can't say anything else about it. I mean is that thing real or pure BS?

Umm. .. are you serious? Take a closer look at the video. If that guy had to match acceleration and speed with the WS6 things would be pretty windy on the scooter. Also, that kind of acceleration on a little board most certainly would cause the kind to do a wheelie. That quy would have very poor stability.

To match power to weight ratios the scooter would need something like 20-30 horsepower, which I suppose is doable for a very short time, but with one gear I doubt the little motor could get to peak power quickly.

And at high speeds with teeny tiny tires with no suspension that kid would be toast.

BS.

Yeah but remember....there is nothing in the video about lenght of the race.
Even if it was not real it was still a funny video. It had me cracking up at the goped's NOS purge.

this has been discussed in numerous other threads.

most came up with a conclusion that it's fake
due to following reasons

1. Modified WS6 would have broke traction on hard acceleration in the beginning, but no signs of that anywhere
2. Wind resistance on the goped would be too difficult to go too fast.
3. That ws6's owner came into conversion but he never answered any of the questions regarding the race.

It's hard to tell who is ahead of who, but I've always believed "Lite is right" when it comes to a drag. But this is ridiculous.

No Kidding?
My anti-virus usually picks that stuff up. It never signaled anything. Sorry

 

[Mad'lac]

Same here ...I didn't get any signals on mine. Just alot of laughs.
