did the same thing to my godchild's barbie jeep.she wanted to go faster, so i put in another battery and wired it 24 volt.laughed my a$$ off when she hit the throttle,but she loved it.had to keep it out thick grass due to you will eventually burn up the 12 volt motors. keep it on cement, and the motors don't heat up to much.
A buddy of mine did that to his daughters Jeep power wheels. He's an avid offroader and tinkerer. I think he's up to 3 batteries now. It hauls when it gets traction. We were talking about putting some big rubber bands around the tires... But we decided that like most motor sports, when you get traction, you start showing weak points. He didnt watn to have to go fixing plastic parts when they go snap. So she's just happy spinning out in the driveway and zipping around in the grass. haha. Its pretty entertaining to watch.
