once styling cues are finished, you need to wire it to fit 4 x 18 volt cordless drill batteries in series and make that baby scream.

do a youtube search for powerwheels .
some of my favorites

wheelies

pinks

i hotwired my boys 6 volt one wheel drive bug with 18 volts and now even i can ride it.
he loves doing roll-backs and hard left turns!!
i had to replace the front wheels with push mower rubber tires. it had temendous understeer but does three wheel turns now.
i also need to modify the steering, it originally had a 14" turning radius, but now turns within 9' radius.

pik before battery mods. steering radius mod was in tact here, notice front wheels.
