It is one of six vehicles that does not have a counterpart, the other five being the [[Blue Falcon]], Jet Bubble, [[Classic Dragster]], [[Phantom (bike)|Phantom]], and [[Zip Zip]]. | This kart does not have a [[bike]] counterpart for its size class, though the lightweight [[Jet Bubble]] has a similar stat distribution.
