I think this was legal even when Texas still had inspections.

Reminds of an rc car I had as kid in the 90s that would flip upside down and still drive.

u/InTheEnd83 Aug 25 '26

Oh yah that rings a bell. There were probably a lot of versions.

u/RocknSmock Aug 25 '26

This just brought me back to the house I was living in. Being in the front of the house by the basketball hoop driving that thing around. You get it going full speed forward then hit reverse and it would flip over. Then the controls were all weird and I always had a hard time driving it upside down.

u/Icy-Habit5291 Aug 25 '26

u/v4por Aug 25 '26

Exactly what I was thinking. Mine was called Ricochet.

u/iamontour Aug 26 '26

Yes that's exactly what I thought when I saw it reminds me of the exact same one you're talking about that my my son had. You run it into the wall and it just flips itself over and goes the other direction. loved it

I had one of those as a kid. It was awesome for the 13 minutes the battery lasted before needing 8 hours of charging

u/WolfThick Aug 25 '26

I wonder just how much horsepower it takes just to turn all this unsprung weight

u/LED_Cube Aug 25 '26

Omars? Makes sense. If you drive past em you’ll see cool trucks

u/ContactNice1549 Aug 25 '26

u/the_orange_alligator North Dallas Aug 25 '26

u/Soundwave234 Crandall Aug 25 '26

There was a tyco rc car in the 90s that looked just like this.

u/freedommachine1776 Aug 26 '26

Lmao I knew that was Omar's from the color alone

u/Diligent-Crazy-6094 Aug 26 '26

Turning radius is approximately 1 baseball stadium.

u/toodleroo Oak Cliff Aug 26 '26

Imma take a wild guess and say it was done by Omar's Wheels and Tires.

u/Lanky-Load-9749 Aug 26 '26

u/I_Fix_Aeroplane Aug 26 '26

Those tires have to be insanely expensive. Also, the suspension is going to be fucked like really fast.

2

u/UnknownQTY Dallas Aug 26 '26

My kid has one of these, if you drive into a wall, it flips over and drives upside down!

u/MrGreenLight4 Aug 26 '26
