  • why does it go so slow? my friends youger borther whos 10 races go karts at 90 mph.

  • @indycardino Nope, I got it now... you pretend to go fast with your legos right?

  • @plkracer dude that thing is sick ....its gotta be a fucking blast to beat on

  • @achilles6282 Yeah it is. It will do 100 easily. It beats most cars from 0-60 with a time around 5-6 seconds. Just because I didn't drive it fast the first day I finished it doesn't mean it isn't fast.
