Fantastic. My son got into those over 20 years ago. My wife was upset that one of his designs used a couple of lp's as drivers. (Best use for a Barbara Streisand album if you ask me.)

About 2 feet. We used washers for the wheels wrapped with electrical tape. Major burnouts on the wood laminate flooring.

Skate board bearings for the front wheels, an ink pen for spacers. The front axle is a skewer. The back axle a screw with 4 bolts and 10 total washers.

He will catch onto to something that will work. I think that was about the second "stand back Dad, you aren't following me" project for my son.
