ABSTRACT:
A toy vehicle is provided including a counterbalance weight and a support member which can cause the vehicle to spin while performing a wheelstand. The counterbalance weight can be positioned to provide a downwardly directed force which, together with the torque on the rear wheels, causes the front wheels to raise off the ground as the vehicle moves forward. The support member includes a pair of skids which can be positioned to engage the ground while the vehicle is performing a wheelstand to cause it to spin substantially in circles. Alternatively, the counterbalance weight can be positioned so that an insufficient counterbalance force exists to raise the front wheels off the ground as the vehicle moves forward.
