The smacker is a good car for a youngster, its pretty tough and its quite quick. (probably too quick still for a 6yo)
You could get a cheap tamiya like the grasshopper (the combo deals are around £99 at most retailers like dms / fusion etc). The grasshopper comes with the 380 motor and its plenty fast enough for a 6yo. It does mean building the car, but the grasshopeer is soo easy to build. (1.5 hours). It would be a far more interesting for the father and son to build it together.
