This spectacular vehicle has to be seen to be believed! It has no pedals, no battery, no power
source other than the child driver ..
and it can to do 10 kph, turn on a dime and move backwards.
It's like magic, but you don't need to be a magician to get it to work. The PlasmaCar is a
mechanical marvel that makes use of that most inexhaustible of energy sources, kid-power, by
harnessing the natural forces of inertia, centrifugal force, gravity, and friction. It's so easy
to operate; all it needs is a driver and a smooth, flat surface.

How Does it Work?

Read the article from EXN.CA
Let a physics professor from the University of Toronto explain how it works.
We had the grand introduction of this vehicle during the
Festival of the Maples.
Here are some youngsters enjoying an early morning ride on the Plasmacar.
The Record News featured our Plasmacar on their front page. Text says: "Perth's Gore Stree was
busy during last Saturday's annual Perth Festival of the Maples, but not so busy that Edna Campbell, foreground,
couldn't find space for some awesome driving. The White Lake resident drew some stares as she and her friend drove around in new plasma cars".
