I used to use a pedal car in a "demolition derby" with the kid next door who also had one. Later when I had a "Big Wheel", I rigged up a hand brake out of a piece of wood that I could lock against one of the rear wheels so I could "spin out".Wore the wheel in half on the front and the one in the back.
I hardly ever even see kids riding tricycles or bicycles down the street anymore.
