Racing Grannies - Go Granny go!

This totally cracked me up, I don't know why I find this so funny..maybe because I live in South Florida and am imagining "racing grannies" at the supermarket or something...  but this gadget is just so great...

Racing Grannies

Possibly the best wind-up toy ever invented, the Racing Grannies are to geriatric speedway what Ferrari is to Formula One. As anyone who has been on the receiving end of a Zimmer-frame will know, grannies are formidable movers with legendary stamina, and these delightful wind-ups are testament to their endurance. With expressions of steely determination and complete with go-faster cardigans, these two are just a few winds away from the race of their lives. It's time to have your own Gran National!
