I probably should've posted this on "Over 60 and Swift" ?
MOBILITY SCOOTER TAKES ON AIRPLANE
A Lincolshire plumber who built the world's fastest mobility scooter has pitted it against an aeroplane. Colin Furze, 31, officially broke the world record with a remarkable speed of 71.59mph on the petrol-powered super scooter last year.
And remarkably the scooter managed to accelerate faster than a Robin DR400 single engine propeller aircraft when the pair were pitted against each other down a runway in Lincolnshire. He added: "It accelerated away from the starting line quicker than the plane, but eventually the plane gained on me and by the time we were level it was taking off." |
