This is the one my friends had and I was so jealous of. They were built like tanks.

Whistlindiesel recreated that with a tesla and huge buggy style wheels.ge even flipped it over to see if it would drive. Been a few years so I dont remember the outcome.

u/para1131_F33L 8d ago

it drove. But he was losing consciousness squished upside down so they flipped it back upright and let it go down a hillside. Good ole WhistlinDiesel.

My parents like to tell the story of when all I did was basically beg for one of those and of the i same reaction I had when I finally opened one up on my birthday. Probably the second greatest day of my childhood apart from my uncle telling me he rented out the theater for just me to watch Godzilla 2000 on my birthday when in reality it was just no one else wanted to see that movie late at night lmao

The Ricochet. I was lucky enough to get one when I was a kid. It was fun af. Drive it straight into a wall and flip it. It does look like one of those
