Topic: Segway Grand Prix

[minidaz]

I know the C5 got beat by it on the gadget show , but while on holiday in Gt. Yarmouth, we came accross this :

Didn't get to have a go , but it looked like a lot of fun. charging between £4 - £6 for 6 laps.

Wonder if a C5 grand prix would take off

Hey I saw that when we were in yarmouth. I didn't think it was worth £4 for it though. Saying that, I did enjoy the kiddie rides next to it (electric cars) for £1 a go

As daft as it sounds - I think the C5 is better, it looks cooler, goes faster, its legal to use & cheeper. 

I guess I'm lazy too, and would rather ride to work on my *pardon my French* than have to stand - lol

I agree that the Gadget Show made the wrong choice, but having tried a Segway I have to concede they are also a lot of fun.

Umpa is right though, I also still prefer to own a C5 coz I simply couldn't afford to buy and run a Segway - let alone find somewhere to use the thing.

Those electric cars were great fun, although my 6 year old son kept beating me on them every time we had a race 
Best bet, stick to the Smart Cars ... the racing cars were just too slow

There are some incriminating photos and videos of me on the electric cars (with my 1 year old son I might add) of us being pushed around by a friend of ours for a whole lap! Hilarious!
