nitrous on a weed eater

is it possible?
We have all seen those little go peds that kids have to scoot around in the neighborhood, This guy that wrecked into my truck with his GSXR had one in the garage with a racing carb, and something about a gear change,(he said something about a spindle). He said it could hit 50mph,
Would it be possible to put nitrous on those things. Me being bored is some times is dangerous.

you'd probably have fun metering the darn thing so you don't blow the engine apart or something.

On a weed eater eh? Have a button that says "Die baby die!" for those really tough weeds. hehe

those are the same motors that are on those go peds. Yea i was thinking if you hadnt cut your grass in a while, and you came across a big shrub, u could hit that button and make toothpick out of it. I think im going to try it. on a go ped not a weedeater.

to put Nos on a go ped or weed wacker just find a line or sumthin that feeds into the carb and get a wip cream can dont turn it upside down keep it right side up so nothing but the gases (nos) come out and that will give u a good boost but u will kill the engine with about 4-5 shots of that. have fun
