Default Pocket Bikes

Anybody have a pocket bike? I would like to pick one up to race but don't know to much about them other than the different sizes.
Are there any good brands?

They're small but they still can go fast. They have racing clubs for them (in america I dunno). Where should I look to find one?

the only time my pocket bike comes out is when beer is involved, it has no exhaust either i love it, especially at 3 am in my apartment complex. i paid 100 bucks, originally it was at least 400. so far ive looped it twice and torn my leg to ****, and my friend joe broke his collar bone on it jumping a speed bump, after beer of course

you'd probably have more fun on a mini motard than a pocket bike but they do race pocketbikes too in the US you just have to look harder for the clubs that do it
check out www.edgewise-racing.com actually Josh Hayes races with them occasionally when he's back home in Mississippi
may not be your area of the country but you should be able to get some info on good pocketbikes
