You've got two future Henry Fords there.

Ummm, just one question. Does that thing have any brakes, or is it "aim for something cheap"?

Two answers:

1) Neighborhood friend Kevin is the driver and didn't fall far from the tree as his dad works for Northrup Grumman/Sperry Marine working on systems that keep many of our nations fleet heaading in the right direction.

2)Brakes were developed as part of the R&D, the final ride had the PVC pipe across the back wheels attached to a cable tied to a hand brake operated by the driver who also steers with his feet.

Not many rides after this video they picked up a 3rd rider and switched the wheels front to back in order to attempt a power drift. It wasn't pretty with parts flying... "The Last Ride"

AND SOFT!

When I was learning to ride a bike, my old man never mentioned anything about aiming for something soft.
