All I Want For Christmas is One of These.

 I don't know about you, but I ALWAYS wanted a little go-kart/car that had an electric motor that I could zoom around in. I know why my parents never bought me one. Partially because I have a very small court to "whizz" it about it, also because they usually make the sound of an asthmatic whale when the motor's running which can piss off neighbours and also because drivers around where I live see a 4-year-old me in a plastic go-kart and immediately begin calculating the points they'd recieve for hitting me.

This video is of a 2 year old boy's Lighting McQueen car from the Disney Movie 'Cars' that was a plastic go-kart that he used so much he wore through the plastic tyres.
Instead of buying another slow, plastic go-kart. This Dad did the best thing in the world. and turned it into a super-fast car.

In his own words:

"At the age of 2 Evan received his Lightning McQueen Powerwheel for christmas of 2009. After three years of use he had worn through the plastic wheels. We decided to upgrade the oem plastic wheels to metal rims with rubber tires. From that point more modifications were added every few weeks. Now, Evans Lightning McQueen Powerwheel is equipped with an aluminum back half chassis, dual sealed gel batteries with an output of 24 volts, a 500 watt .66 horsepower electric motor, disk brake, throttle modulated variable speed control with reverse and sparco battery cut off switch."

 What makes it even better is the fact that this little kid has somewhere to drive this beast in what I assume to be some sort of sports track.

Note: Points for a 4-year-old me in a go-kart = 50.

However, it's also worth noting 1 "hit-point" is the equivalent of 1 confiscated liscence and 10 years in jail. I never understood that maths. Since the ones with the most "hitpoints" attached to them are usually the ones society could do without, and yet- you get most time in jail for it. 

Society confuses me.
