fastest land speed record on one of those is like 55.7 mph. It was tuned a bit and the guy went past redline to get that speed. The old record was like 37 mph or something.

there called pocket bikes and they have ones that go very fast but the people but a 3 speed on them. there are even N2O setups for them. they are not for little kidds there are adult ones that have 16 Hp and are liquid cooled and rev to 11,500 rpm. blata makes some small 3.5 hp ones but because they are 2 strokes you can burn out and rip whellies. i have used one once they are very fun and you can pick a nice one up off ebay for under 1,000

A lot of actuall racers use those to hone thier skills. Since the bikes are so small they tend to be less forgiving on mistakes. Riding them is a lot harder than you would think (unless your small). My fastest speed was 32 miles per hour but it felt like I was doing 100+

I have one of those. They are hella fun, and you can race them. In fact in japan, they race the mall the time.

They are way cool and fast.
