As an adult speed in a car is a status symbol, it was just the same as a kid when you had the Cheetah you had the fastest thing on three wheels and your friends with green machines and big wheels knew it. All the baseball cards stuck on their wheels couldn't make it fast enough to beat out the fastest beast a kid ever had. You knew you had something special with that Cheetah,

@LightenUpMcGraw I used to outrun kids on bicycles on my Cheetah chopper.

I had one of these. It was awesome! I wore the rear tires out before I out-grew it. It really did blow the Big Wheel and the Green Machine away. I haven't owned a vehicle since that could compare.

@LightenUpMcGraw True! I am hoping others have some videos they would like to post of this super-toy. Fittingly it seems to be quite rare compared to the other riding toys/kids vehicles. You could roast others on their big wheels with that thing.
