Looks like a kiddie ride someone grafted a kit onto :-)

Boy, never seen that before. At first I thought it was a Cruisin USA conversion, but it isn't. It does seem kinda small. Can anybody confirm this?

That was my first thought too. Who wants to try shifting from between your legs? Especially since the upright has the boost button on the shifter. The steering wheel is different from the upright. The other thing that seems really odd is that it clearly has gas and brake pedals where the upright only has gas. OTOH, If it really does move with the game, that would be very difficult to fake.
 
The normal sit-down things of these are rare enough:

I will admit that it does look very home made...
