I saw this thing at Walmart today and decided to get it. It's pretty fun to drive around the dining room. It does little wheelies. It's completely two wheels. No training wheels or anything and will fall over pretty easy.

Who's taking bets on how quickly Trip will be making BMW stickers for this thing.

LOL, I thought about it, but it's way too small for me to make them.

yeah I remember those with the training shafts sticking out of the side so he couldn't go down. This one is much easier, but it still needs a wide area for a turn. I have found I can press the wheelie button mid turn and he will 180 that bitch though.

The only lame part is the throttle, it's like an SV. It's either on or it's off, literally. Its a one touch button. You press once to go and and then you press again to turn it off. You can turn tighter if you turn off the throttle and turn, but you got to turn it back on fast or you will fall over.

the new ones are much improved now days. I haven't tried one of these yet but the reviews have been very good for them. I was thinking about trying to get a few guys together and race them at the local dirt R/C track.
