Nimbus' flight speed
It's shown to be able to consistently keep up with the Red Ribbon Army's fighter jets, most often outspeeding them outright, with the air crafts being able to reach Mach 2 speeds (In the 80s, most Japanese fighter jets could fly at Mach 2, with examples like the American-made F-15J which was the primary one at the time, so these jets should also be within that range) giving it "Supersonic+ flight speed" (since the baseline for Supersonic+ is Mach 2.5, and since Goku's Nimbus far exceeds Mach 2 speeds, with the gap between the two speeds just being 1.25x, this should be plausible), which doesn't seem to be contradictory to the current speed ratings of the characters.This should be applied to all of DB Goku's keys (Both Manga & Classic Toei) and Z Goku's first two keys (BoZ & Post-North Kai Training) since he utilises it when going off to fight Raditz and to fight Nappa & Vegeta. There are probably some travel speed instances that get it to a higher speed value but this should suffice as a low ball for now, the verse's current flight/travel speed ratings are a bit of a mess so I do plan to fix those eventually alongside upgrading Nimbus' speed, this CRT's main concern is to give it and the Power Pole a speed rating at all, speaking of which.
Power Pole Extension
In his fight with King Piccolo (Chapter 158/Episode 121) Goku was able to propel himself by extending the Power Pole, being fast enough to tag King Piccolo, who at the time had Relativistic combat speed. By being too fast for King Piccolo to react to the staff's extension should make the weapon's size shifting at least Relativistic.This should be applied to all of DB Goku's keys (Both Manga & Classic Toei) except for his 23rd Budokai key in the manga (He keeps it the anime in the events after the end of the tournament. Yes it's slower than his combat speed at this time but the extension also applies to travel speed so it's not completely redundant)
