Default OMG! She's a natural!
Got my daughter a Razor Drifter Cart for her birthday. I gave her no instruction other than showing her the gas and the brake.

The result:

It's amazing what kids naturally do. A few summers back I did some work with a camp that was motorsports based. We had dirt karts that were run with sliding around in mind and with only one or two exceptions every single one of the kids countersteered. What was more impressive was that 75% or so of them added teh correct amount of input. None of them were taught about it before hand. All we talked about was keeping their eyes up and looking ahead. I wish I knew how these skills were taught out of the general population by the time they are 16.

Does this mean Scott will be buying his daughter a drifter cart with more mods?
