Street Legal Bumper Cars in SoCal
Ok, we’re suckers for cool things whether they are 2-4-6-8 wheels or no wheels at all. So, when we saw these pic’s from a friend, we just had to stop and look and eventually try to purchase one for ourselves. Granted, as a builder we’re easily distracted by things that go “bump, bump” but not literally as these are used bumper cars from Long Beach Pike Amusement Park which were saved from the scrap yard by Tom Wright (a teckie builder in San Diego, CA), and turned into what you see here. Street legal whoopee machines!
Yep, that’s right; these little babies are street legal. Tim uses either Kawasaki or Honda (no V-Twins as they rattle too much) motorcycle engines for power. These were transformed into the most awesome form of mini-car we’ve ever seen.
Here are a few of these little monsters “bumpin” around California. A couple have 
been measured’ [not run] theoretically capable of 160 MPH which is terrifyingly fast in ANY machine. Much less one with such a short wheelbase. We’ve put our order in for one and can’t wait to start rocking Orange with it! What do you think?
