    man you have got the ultimate parking lot revenge machine there . just think of all those but munches who sling , push , shove the shopping cart they are using into your pride and joy , and we all know that beatin their backsides would be the best but who wants to visit the county hoocow . nope instead put a bumper of some kind on the front of that thing and some spikes gauranteed to scratch the hell out of something then go to the local wal mart and go ape sh-- ! ohhhhh that would be so fun ........:)

    That's great! I've "borrowed" a few of those from the local 'mart, and i've "jumped" one as well, though mine had a 2 friendpower engine behind it. Great fun, just don't jump it off a ramp in an attempt to clear a curb with grass behind it having a downward sloping angle, as when said cart lands past the curb, your initial enthusiasm quickly deteriorates as said cart tumbles ass over teakettle into the woods past said grass, into the aforementioned trees. :D

    My friend had a shopping cart in his basement when we were kids. He was sitting in it and I was pushing him as fast as I could and went to make a sharp right hander. He slid left and tipped it over. Bad part was, we were right next to the pool table which stopped the latteral acceleration of the left side of his head. Then the right side of the cart smashed him on the other side of his mellon effectively sandwiching his head between the table and cart. Then I fell on top of the cart which was already on top of him. I quickly pulled the cart off him as he lay motionless, huddled in the fetal position under the pool table. Luckilly as I stood there in shock trying to come up with and excuse to tell his mother he regained conciousness. Shopping carts can be fun but watch the high center of gravity.
     
  14. I'm so glad your friend was ok.. because that's one of the funniest things I've ever read... :D

    we are going to take it shopping soon it just need a little work done to the transmission and clutch to get it all working well. It will also be getting a new coat of flat black and the stereo work will be cleaned up because it was just sorta thrown on there because we were bored. Also the HAMB will be one of the first places i post the video up of us shopping.
