I can't figure out what the name of this toy is...I remember playing with it in elementary school and preschool. It had a giant seat, usually red or yellow, with the handle bars that stuck out the front, so that your feet could sit on them, and then you would hold onto the bars and twist around to get the "scooter" to move...does anyone know what I'm talking about or what the name of it is? Its really bothering me,lol, so any help would be great! :carebear

The toy sounds familiar, but I don't know the name of it either!

The one in the 80s was the Wham-O Roller Racer. But they still make them and you can buy one here. Roller Racers And also at various other places when you google it.

Here's the physics on how it works as well, for extra fun!

I loved mine so much! :wub:

Great job Kalei! This Wham-O Roller Racers were EXACTLY what I was thinking of too! These were so much fun. I think we had either a yellow seated one or an orange one... :D

OMG,I remember riding on those back in elementary school. ;)

I remember I used to squirm around to make the stupid thing move.It was hard to control it I remember. :lol: LOL

wow. did that toy come out earlier it likes like it might have started out in the '50s or something

:music oooh! I use to love playing with those!! A couple of my neighborhood friends had them and we would race. It's amazing how fast you could go on flat ground once you got it started B)

good job==
is this the toy you were thinking of?
