Maybe not for recreation but if someone was shooting at you, i'm sure you'd wish it went faster

Well, it's cooler than a Segway.
Looks like a rough ride for an off-road vehicle, though. Needs better springs on the track wheels.

Cool lookin'

Really? If I was back in combat the last thing I would want is a loud vehicle with no cover that requires me to stand up. Why not paint it safety orange for all the good it would do. If I remember correctly the US Army experimented with an all terrain two man vehicle that allowed you to ride in the prone firing position. That would bee a preferable option I would think.

I'd characterize it as more of a military-grade Razor.

Yeah, I wouldn't mind if the army gave me a couple and we could do some free "testing" for them (i.e. paintball).

But the real question is, will it blend?

Halloweenie you are too cool. You have combat experience and you know a lot about the energy issues I contemplate often. Throw in a scooter and it makes me wish you lived closer to my home base. Some of my good friends are vets, a tip of the hat to you good sir.

That being said, does this Segway stomper come in tie dye?
