| We've had stupid games and stupid sports and stupid puzzles... But this is the first Stupid Racing Set we've ever offered. And boy IS IT STUPID! It's kind of like your typical slot car racing set, in that it has an oval track and two controllers. But instead of race cars, this set has two GRANDMOTHERS IN MOTORIZED WHEEL CHAIRS! (We don't know where you live, but here in NYC senior citizens in motorized wheelchairs have become a major menace .To give you an idea how bad things are, even the CAB DRIVERS are terrified of them. So the idea of taking these crazed, gray-haired lunatics off our sidewalks and letting lose a racetrack REALLY appeals to us.) The Granny Racers Track Racing Granny Game contains everything you need to hold your own octogenarian speed competitions. You get a 26" oval racetrack with over 70" of track, two speed controllers, and two racing Grandmothers in motorized wheelchairs -- one red and one blue. (you'll need 4 AA batteries, too) There are also guardrails for the curves so the Grannies won't go tumbling to their death when you take the turn to quickly. In playing with our set, we discovered that you need a light touch to get the Grannies really humming. Too much power, and they'll spin off the slot. Too little, and they'll stall on the crossovers. Oh.... about those crossovers... The designers of Granny Racers weren't content with simply stupid game -- They had to make it nasty. At two points in the oval, the track intersects. Naturally, this means that your Grannies will have devastating collisions if you're not careful. (They'll probably have them even if you are.) So, fire up your engines and get ready for the Geritol 500 coming to you live from the Depends Motor Speedway! |
