Now only if you could get the 914 (that looks like it's about to pounce on your son) to do that. I had one of those Ket-cars when I was young. 4 wheels, pedal power.

Ya, I did do that and got a picture to prove it. Also got the wife and my oldest out there ON THE TRACTOR.

It was a riot and I won Nieghbors were over tonight, getting to be a real red neck party. Then someone said "Hey Ya'll watch this shit" and then someone was crying.

Looks like that tractor is push'n hard. Time for a rear bar!

yea it pushes a little. He tends to turn-it to late and he watches the cone as it goes by. But hey didn't we all when we started? Just took the pedal blocks off so now he has more torque. That is one tough tractor, 38 years old second set of tires still original paint 3 drivers. Me now 41 my oldest 18 and Michael going on 5 in April. We get 2 laps around the block and off to grandma's house total 1 1/2 miles most days.

Now he goes out and sets up the cones and lets it rip till dark.

When my nine year old get a little older I'm going to have to put a passenger seat in so I can be her instructor.

She asked me the other day if I'm going to give her the car when I get too old to drive.
