It will not go 400 mph unless it's in a vacuum. The power required to
overcome air drag goes up with the cube of velocity (first order
approximation). My back of the napkin calculations say it would take at
least 2700 HP to go 400 mph in that thing.

Plus, the cheap beggers, no kickstand. I mean, really.
