When I was a kid, Power Wheels were all the rage. But my caring and loving parents refused to buy me 1, no matter how many times I asked. My experiences with the machines back then were limited to test-drives at the local Toys R Us, or befriending the weird kid down the block just so I could take his for a spin every so often. Even today, Power Wheels are still a hit amongst youngsters, and although I'm a grown-up now (I guess) who gets to drive all sorts of, you know, real cars, I still get plenty jealous when I see some lucky kid cruising down the sidewalk in 1 of these machines.
I'm thankful, then, for companies like DBR High Performance. Because as the video below clearly shows, these awesome toys from my youth can still provide plenty of hilarity and excitement for adults. Here, the folks at DBR strapped Barbie's iconic pink Power Wheels Mustang to a dyno to see just how much power this bad boy is putting down (in face-melting Rabbit Mode!).
Is it powerful? Goodness, no. But is it hilarious? Absolutely. Scroll down to see for yourself.
Oh my gawd, so funny. The fan, hood popping up and the bungie cords took it over the top. The dyno operator will know better next time, if someone brings in a Big Wheels trike.
