i was looking at a yellow vette like that at toys-r-us the other day lol it had a working radio!! i was getting excited. i got some seat time in one of those dune buggy powerwheels about a year ago at academy. i had to sit on the roll cage with my feet inside lol. my buddy ran behind me and kicked the rear end when i got to the end of the isle and powerslid all the way to the next isle

my little cousin (almost 3 years old) got a john deere tractor for christmas this year, it had a lockout plate over where the shifter goes into second gear, we now know why. she slammed it into second, it took off and knocked grandma down

That is my son Wilhelm. He's been driving Power Wheels since he was 2 and doing the same donut in the same spot in the driveway since he was 3 so we let him take his helmet off unless he is REALLY going fast or if he is wearing a three point harness. People used to look at us funny when we were belting our 3 year old into one of his Power Wheels... until they saw him drive it.

In the Video, the batteries weren't fully charged (we had just finished the Nitrous mod and wanted to try it) so he was only going 8-10 mph. His faster Power Wheels are around 13 mph.

I bought the Corvette off E-bay (I think I payed $95 for it). Most are Pink, but there are a few Red ones and White ones (the rarest). They were sold in the early 90's and were 6 volts only (but easily accept a second battery for 12 Volts). The Nitrous Vette has a hidden, EXTRA 6 volt battery controlled by the steering wheel button using a 30 Amp relay for a total of 18 volts.

Wil's not only good at Power Wheels. If you ever see him at Game Works or Main Event, challenge him to a Game of Daytona 2 or Sega Rally. He has to hang from the steering wheel and can barely touch the pedals with his toes, but I can't lose him.

I just looked at your site. Those power wheels mods are sweet
Hmm, I got a niece that's 4 and has a barbie jeep, wonder if my sister would mind if I lifted it and converted it to 18 volts.
