Looking for a children's toy that will delight, fascinate, and invigorate for years to come? PlaSmart's come to the rescue with the perfect toy: The revolutionary new PlasmaCar. Built to last: High-quality plastics Rugged and durable Deceptively simple to operate No pedals No gears No batteries required

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.


The PlasmaCar is adult-friendly, too. For starters, it doesn't require an expensive power source that needs constant replacement. No batteries, no power-cells, no liquid fuel-just the occasional cookie or two. It's quiet too-the only sound you'll hear is the sound of its wheels. It provides kids with plenty of exercise, more so than most toys. And the PlasmaCar is engineered to be absolutely safe when used appropriately. It's been extensively tested, and meets or exceeds all significant international safety standards, including the following: American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) F936:96a European Toy Safety Standard EN71 Part 1: 1998 - Mechanical and physical properties EN71 Part 2: 1993 - Flammability EN71 Part 3: 1994 / A1:200 - Specification for migration of certain Elements The PlasmaCar can handle a load of 100 kg (220 lbs) on a smooth, flat surface, and 55 kg (120 lbs) on a rough, flat surface.


NOT RECOMMENDED FOR USE ON HARDWOOD FLOORS OR LAMINATE FLOORING

For the kids, the PlasmaCar is pure energy and pure fun. For the folks, it's safe, inexpensive, and quiet. Don't just take our word for it: the PlasmaCar has garnered global acclamation, including the 2001 Gold Medal at the International Patent Fair in Hong Kong.
