Totally hysterical... Track Grannies is the Formula One version of the Gran National and just goes to prove that growing old isn't just a race against time. Edna and Betty, hot wheeled and blanketed, are the speediest OAP's on the planet, and whoever wins will collect the 'Chocolate biscuit and a nice cup of tea Trophy'. With individual speed controllers and nail-biting crossover tracks, racing these determined biddies is just like being track-side at Silverstone, only with less roaring and more muttering.

oh my god. something about this eccentric little toy makes me smile big.

Rev up the engine and spend your afternoons racing grandmas with your friends. (via amazon.com)

You could have a "night out at the granny races" at your local nursing home. That is totally tasteless on my part...but a mildly humorous thought nonetheless.

Granny Racers. Perfect for Grandma this holiday. Unless she has a really big trust fund in which case, go for another present.

I have to get the Remote Control Granny Racers for my father. He's in his 70's. I can't stop thinking about how he and his cousin (both in their 70's) raced around the downstairs of the home where my grandmother lived. They were using those cool new-fangled "walkers" that their mothers (both in their 90s) had. Of course, it was only funny because their mothers were each sitting on their walker when the race began. I need to find the video and put it on YouTube.

Anyway, the Remote Control Granny Racers look like a lot of fun. If not fun, you know that your friends and family will be rolling on the floor laughing when they see this. I know my kids will be fighting over who gets to play with the Remote Control Granny Racers.
