Ha ha that's almost child abuse. The kid is sitting there leaning forward like go go go. The guy in The one I posted put a modified switch in The pedal and the kid gets to control.

Those 2 videos are pretty sweet! Makes me wish I was small enough to ride one! I have a feeling I would collapse one of those things though. Maybe i could put platic wheels on my quad and drift around like that

Yea IIRC those toys are only rated for like 90 lbs. You could see in the very first video that the wheels were tilting inward under the extra weight load. I honestly thought for sure he was going to colapse that thing in one of his turns. It wouldn't be too hard to fab up some kind of home made rig and do the same thing with a more sturdy axle setup. There was a full on demonstration here in town over the weekend, and they had quads, dirtbikes, E-mountain bikes, and cars that were all electric driven. Very impressive technology. I also read that the "Smart car" was going to be sold in the USA in 2013 under the all electric concept. If they do we will get one for our retirement for running back and forth to the store and such. Specs are still not determined but the electric smart car is alreay selling in the UK. So its just a matter of time.

Just to get the gender balance right...

Those are funny vids PBO! I don't think I'd want to be on a vehicle going 25mph with plastic wheels though!

Its not a power wheels conversion, but a cool brushless vehicle for a kid. Its radio control for now, but he has plans for making it kid controlled in the future.

Pbo, those are 2 funny videos. The guy going 25 and the woman who can't keep the car on the ground.

I took my little girls barbie jeep from 12V to 24V. She loved it, but the motors burned out pretty quickly. Then I added some 700 size motors at 24V and they burned out too along with the 12V relay. I've kept it for some remote control conversion in the future. Ideally I'd like to run 2 MMM 2200 combos on 6S with the 19t 32 pitch pinions, but I just cant see sinking that much cash into a barbie jeep with plastic tires.
Took the 6V atv tracker to 14.4V and its been holding up fine and they've had a blast on that, but they are getting older now so I got them some electric scooters.
