Crazy Cart Mode

Drift Bar for Adjustable Rear Casters

The rear wheels on the Crazy Cart XL are mounted on casters, like RipStik wheels. By altering the angle of the support

for these wheels, the Crazy Cart XL can either “track” in the same direction as the drive wheel is going or allow the rear

end to “drift” in response to turning or acceleration forces. The Drift Bar allows control between the two driving modes:

normal mode for straight tracking (down or default) and Crazy Cart XL mode for drifting (when the Drift Bar is pulled

up). When the Drift Bar is in the down position, the Crazy Cart XL will track in-line with the front wheel like a traditional

vehicle. As the Drift Bar is raised, it changes the angle of the rear casters and allows the rear of the cart to drift. The

more the Drift Bar is raised, the easier the cart drifts. When the Drift Bar is all the way up, the casters are in “Crazy

Cart mode.” The Crazy Cart XL can thus actually turn itself around in circles, and the size of the circle the cart will spin

in depends on how much, if any, the Drift Bar is pulled up. The higher the Drift Bar is, the tighter the circle the cart will

spin in.

In Crazy Cart mode, the frame is able to rotate any direction, regardless of the direction of travel. In the Crazy Cart mode

it is possible to drive in a straight line with the frame oriented any direction, including backwards and sideways. The

Drift Bar must be raised all the way up to travel backward in the Crazy Cart XL.

Spinning, Drifting and Stopping the Crazy Cart XL

The best use of the Crazy Cart XL involves careful coordination of the steering, the Drift Bar, and the accelerator. The

majority of spins and drifts that can be done in the Crazy Cart XL are accomplished by careful accelerator control.

Learning when to add or reduce power is the key to smoothly connecting tricks. Smooth riding also increases the run

time between charges. When ﬁ rst getting oriented with the Crazy Cart XL, it is highly recommended that riders carefully

apply the accelerator and take time to get familiar with the variable effects of the Drift Bar and steering at low speeds.

There is no separate brake on the Crazy Cart XL, but with practice it is easy to stop. Of course, removing your foot

from the accelerator will slow the cart down as a result of friction in the drive train. To stop the Crazy Cart XL’s

forward motion immediately, take your foot off of the accelerator and turn the steering wheel 90 degrees to either

side. Removing your foot from the accelerator and turning the steering wheel will result in the Crazy Cart XL spinning

or drifting in a circle and slowing to a stop. By turning the steering wheel 90° and taking your foot off the pedal, the

rider can immediately arrest forward motion and instead turn away. In this way, the Crazy Cart XL can avoid collisions

and evade things otherwise in its path.

For your safety, take the time to get familiar and comfortable with various combinations of accelerator, steering, and

Drift Bar applications to learn how to slow down, and how using the Drift Bar affects stopping at slow speeds. Practice

these skills for maximum rider safety.

These basic steering exercises may help to familiarize riders with their Crazy Cart XL’s capabilities:

1. First steer in a circle with the Drift Bar down.

2. Do the same circles, but raise the Drift Bar to different heights, and note how the chassis reacts to drift

differently based on lifts and steering.

3. Practice bringing the Crazy Cart XL to a stop by turning 90° to the left or right-- note how much more tightly

the Crazy Cart XL turns with the Drift Bar raised.

4. Practice staying “tucked in” during tight turns or spins.

WARNING: Recognize that these specialized riding features affect how the Crazy Cart XL functions and

require extra caution and attention to safe riding conditions and practices. Read and review the Safety Warnings on

pages 1 and 2, and be extra careful with the Crazy Cart XL to avoid trafﬁ c, obstacles and downhill environments. This

is not a “bumper car” and is not designed to engage in collisions, jumping activities or for use on surfaces other than

hardened, smooth, ﬂ at and dry areas.

Riding Tip: With the steering

wheel at 90°, the Crazy Cart XL

will move in a circle using the rear

inside caster as the “pivot point”

if the Drift Bar is down -- but will

rotate around its center if the Drift

Bar is fully raised.

Riding Tip: The front stabilizer

casters help to keep your Crazy

Cart XL from tipping when you

are ﬁ rst stepping into the cart

and when you turn too hard.
