This is cool, I want to build one for my kids!!! This little girl is apparently 8 years old. Here is a vid of her wheeling it:

My 5 yr old has already rolled her electric Jeep, so I am sure she would love this. Her 3 yr old brother could co-pilot too!!!

Here is the build thread for this buggy:

Buggy looks cool and she does well driving it. I think she just needs a better spotter. :laugh3: She already drives better than some adults I know. :shocked:

I wish... no time for that right now. For now I'll have to be content in watching her power-slide and roll her electric Jeep. I am in search of a small gas-powered go-cart though...

They make MAXXIS Bighorns for the Quads / lifted golf carts up to like 29" I think

I seen some listed for 14 inch rims... they'd fit right on a honda civic heh heh

Wow...that buggy is neat!!! Seems to work fairly well considering what its built from!!

Andy you need to get on this. That would be a blast for the kids!

Actually...considering Amy's experience, maybe you should build her a mini-drift car? Lol... I hear Japan is nice this time of year :)
