Those engines sound too high pitched to be a 250cc 4 stroke.. but I'm not to sure..

Fucking insane to drive a kart with aerodynamics to keep it stuck to the ground though!

I wish my town would let me do that

The vid says they are supercharged go karts. Didnt see anything about the engine though.

250cc two stroke karts. Very very fast, but not supercharged in any way!

Also think the vid is a little sped up, hence why the engines sound a bit wrong.

Racing takes place on the Isle of Man, where the TT is. Also probably Ireland too.
