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.

I wish they had thought of that when I was a kid!! Although, I did have a go-kart when I was a little older which was just as awesome.

That kid is learning some serious life lessons of car control there
