    something I always wanted to do

    I always wanted to take a tiny trike or Quad like a ATC70 and put a Powerwheels body on it. I no its sounds stupid but if you think about it I could bomb around my neibourhood without anybody knowing Im doing something illeagal. Anyways a ATC70 came up for sale around me for $300(CDN) and I was wonderin do you think it is a good idea or would the bike be to loud and give away my little secret and perhaps ending up in me getting a fine?

    .... Well.. Lets see here, a powerwheels is electric and makes a whineing sound. I dont think your going to fool anyone when theres exhaust smoke, sound, rubber tires, and your going over 5mph.. nice try though.
    Give me no lip and I tell you no lie.

    HAHAHA!! I think you should give it a go...if you can get it a lil cheaper than 300 CDN bucks...Just think: you could smoke the little boy/girl next door and they will go home and tell their parents "the neighbor man has a really cool, fast, and loud PINK powerwheels!!! WILL YOU BUY ME ONE LIKE HIS??? please mommy please??" i think its another stretch, but hey...

    I'd love to do it but I imagine once rumour spreds that some old kid is crusing the neighbourhood popping wheelies and doing speed runs that the cops will for sure be called. After seeing Greenlightnings painted Tecate I'd like to do a 70 with painted fenders, maybe black with orange and yellow flames? Or pink lol.
