Well my next door neghbors kids were riding in their power wheels while I was reading this so I decided to give that website to him and he got some ideas and he put another battery in it so it has about 20 volts. It flys, with both of his kids (about 140 wbs it hits about 10 mph or so) the only problem is that the foot pedal gets too hot and it will solder together and will get stuck on the on postion but he is smart and made a kill switch turning off all the power in it so the kids arent stuck riding around in it till the battery dies.

lol, run away kids! always gotta think about safety first! I wanna see a rock crawler one. With real shocks and a rollbar. For teh kids if they want to climb a small bolders or something! lol

My neghbor fixed the switch problem with a relay and put a 30 amp cut off switch on it. Then he put on some brake switch that when pressed takes the power going to the motors and puts it into a big resistor that heats up (but it dosent stop it too quickly). Now my friend and I both need to get one and have drag races.

Race these little suckers? Good luck, and please dont kill yourself. If i were you, id try to find some rubber wheels, plastic wheels are dangerous at high speeds.

By rubber wheels i mean tires, sorry.
