will it wheelie all stock on dirt or pavement and is a wheelie bar a good idea?

Probably not a bad idea... this thing can FLIP!!! Even set on beginner (3 flashes... read the directions!!) it is super fast. Set on normal mode, it will flip before you know it!! An awesome machine... but I do not have a wheelie bar... too much fun without!!

It is a wheelie machine. I ordered a bar the day after i got it for my daughter. It will hold a wheelie for as long as you can keep it straight. I wheelied an entire block with the stock nimh battery

It will. On a full charge. And as it dies if you put it in reverse and then forward quickly it will wheelie. I just bought a wheelie bar and my 7 year old LOVES it. So I would go ahead and spend the $14 and get it.

It will def wheelie stock on pavement and flip over repeatedly and get all scuffed up. For $15, it's worth it...

Actually, if you are using stock batteries it will only wheelie if it goes backward fast and suddenly changing to full throtle forward . However, if you're planing on using Lipo batteries in the future, then it will be a good idea buying the wheelie bar.

i have mine with the vxl motor now. i don't remember the stock having that much power to do a wheelie.

I have ridden mine on pavement, gravel, and dirt, it has done well and held up. It does have a kick stand. My only complaint is it needs to be taken in and adjusted because it is super tight.

I don't think it would be best for rugged terrain. We use it to haul items to shows that we set up and the wheels are not really that big. They are kind of like a shopping cart wheel. Hope this helps :-)

I have ridden it on dirt paths and it worked fine. The tires are clearly street tires but they work.

The stock wheels folded with a very heavy load while going down a sidewalk slope, my own fault. I do have the decking, I use it occasionally to place equipment on, but I prefer to rent a magliner to do work from.

It is a sturdy devise, but have not tried it on dirt. If it is packed and not rocky, I would think it might be okay. It is not sturdy if not fitted correctly. Andreana

hard dirt would be ok i suppose, i would try and stay onroad with it. mud or loose dirt wont destroy it but you wont get very far on it..

It can. It slides easier on pavement, so it will take a little more weight loaded on it. Obviously on pavement, there will be more wear to the skids than on grass.

One of the features is larger wheels so they roll better so, yes, they should work ok on packed dirt. You should also have a choice of walker width for even better off road performance.

I imagine it would. The wheels are quite large. But they are also rubber, so it may be tougher to steer/turn the handle bars if the carpet was really thick.

I use it on light dirt trails The tires are a little skinny for this, but it's doable. I put a tire with a little more tread on it, but I haven't tried it yet, but I expect it will be better.

My grandson has only ridden it in his large basement and garage, he doesn't live on a kid friendly street, I think if it was smooth pavement it would work well.

I would mostly use it on flat surfaces. I've tried to take it on rougher terrains and it shakes and rattles and is very bouncy. Doesn't do very well on dirt roads.

If tuned correctly then yes it can pop wheelies EVERY time, but just do not floor it, and you will be fine. It is a 2 wheel drive car, not a 4wd, and most 2wd cars can do wheelies, as well some 4wd can if tuned to perfection.

It has air-filled tires. I think it would be very suitable for bumpy pavement as far as comfort goes. It's very small, though, so if the bumps are more like pot holes, it might not be up to that level of bumpiness.

it is a very weak front wheel drive powered unit so getting around on any terrain other than concrete is not really an option, but for general use on even pavement and a fairly light person this would work

It really depends upon your application. If you want this for running errands, getting from a building to your car and back, or other light outdoor use, it will probably be fine. If by 'out side' you mean traversing rocky or muddy terrain, I'd look elsewhere. The wheels are really made for relatively smooth surfaces, like pavement. Also, beware of large cracks in asphalt or concrete.
