On average, the eSkootr racing circuits will cover a distance of around one kilometer, and will have around 30 participants in a grid-style race. If they can get enough teams to sign up (apparently they need a minimum of 10 teams and a total of 30 organ donors racers), then I’m 100% positive that this is going to be some of the most exciting racing out there. We understand that you want your scooter to work at all times, but mechanical things can act funny or stop working.
