Street-legal bumper cars
Street-legal bumper cars
As a kid, I dreamt about "driving off" with a bumper car or a carousel car. I guess dreams DO come true...!

It's easy for a gear-head to be discouraged about the state of the world, especially in times of Carpocalypse and Cash for Clunkers. But occasionally, a bright light of awesome renews the spirit. Road-legal bumper cars do just that.
...
Seven of these are floating around California. These are the creation of one man, Tom Wright, a gyro-gear loose builder on the outskirts of San Diego who figured the leftovers of the Long Beach Pike amusement park needed a more dignified end than the trash heap. They were originally powered by Harley engines but rattled like heck. Tom replaced them with Honda or Kawasaki 750's...and a couple have been 'measured' [not run at] theoretically as capable of 160 MPH, terrifyingly fast in machines with such a short wheelbase.
