July 18, 201113 yr Looks like a lot of fun! Can it do a wheelie? And would you please make a video of that thing in motion?

July 19, 201113 yr Awesome, i really like the first action picture. Love to see it in action *hint* ;)
July 19, 201113 yr I love how you kept the flavor of the Lego Power Puller set (my review of that set here, like the battery box on the sled, the technic figure, the soft axles around the wheels, and of course, the yellow.
July 20, 201113 yr Author Thanks everyone Looks like a lot of fun! Can it do a wheelie? And would you please make a video of that thing in motion? It can't do a wheelie as most of the weight is smack bang in the middle of the chassis. I haven't planned on making a video - they take forever to make and there are many other things I'd like to build first. Looks light & fast. How fast does it go ? Although it's fairly light, it's kind of like a classic muscle car to drive - quite fast in a straight line (about 7 kph on a treadmill) but hates corners. I love how you kept the flavor of the Lego Power Puller set (my review of that set here, like the battery box on the sled, the technic figure, the soft axles around the wheels, and of course, the yellow. Thank you! Your excellent review was the inspiration to build this.
