I am sure I am biased, but it made me laugh again

 

[Dave Shepard]

"No!! Not again!!"

 

[SkwerI]

Hah! I bet you she will end up being an excellent driver in the snow and ice when she gets older, thanks to her experiences now.

 

[Paul B]

Looked like good fun.

 

[MasterBlaster]

Hawt rodding!!!

 

[Jason Gairn]

Excellent fun. Good to see kids being trusted with machinery. She may have lost control of the machine but not herself. I laughed at "not again"

 

[NeTree]

Who knew you could drift in a mini.

 

[Bodean]

Oh, i like that one.

 

[flushcut]

Cute video!

.She may have lost control of the machine but not herself.

That's what I was thinking. Sure is cool to see a little kid maintain their composure under pressure.

 

[Old Monkey]

Kid curling? Were you sweeping in front of her?

 

[sawinredneck]

That was Great Dave! Thank you so much for that!
Bubba can drive the Thomas, but I have to be behind him pressing him into the gas tank because he's not tall enough to see where he's going!

[CurSedVoyce]

That was most friggen awesome.. I was a little worried seeing her sliding down the drive.. But she obviously had it well in hand

Ohhhh No not again! HAHAHAHAHA

 

[Thor's Hammer]

That was hilarious Dave, love it. My Daughter is also called Grace.
Made me go out and find the footage of my Boy driving machines. He could drive a tracked Ramrod when he was 3, by standing on the radiator. This footage was taken just after his 4th birthday, some friends were over visiting from Canaduh eh.

[thattreeguy]

great stuff, i had my 8 yr old running it for me to move gear yesterday, then i had to have the 5 yr old drive it, and her 3 yr old sisiter started to cry so i drove her round the yard on it,
my son who is 11 helped me in an apt complex a few weeks ago, i ran the wood out, he'd run the loader back in, while i moved the logs in the trailer...

way better than a wii

 

[stehansen]

Excellent DAve!

 

[MasterBlaster]

 

[Peter]

Yup, start them young!

 

[Jason Gairn]

My Daughter is also called Grace. This was yesterday. She is 7 and not gifted at excavator operation.

 

[NeTree]

Who's the guy running the excavator?

 

[Jason Gairn]

Peter in Peter's picture, Jason in Jason's. Who is that in your avatar Erik?

 

[NeTree]

Didn't recognize you without all the hardware attached.

 

[Jason Gairn]

I am a master of disguise.
