Abstract

A remote controlled, all-terrain toy vehicle has treads on both its left and right sides. Each tread extends over front and rear oversized, resilient wheels that allow the vehicle to travel on its top and bottom sides in forward and reverse. The vehicle is adapted for high performance on hard, flat surfaces, such as pavement, as a result of an elevated ridge on the tread that ensures low surface area contact with the ground and, which in turn, reduces ground resistance and increases the operating speed of the vehicle.
