Description

What happens when two gray-haired gamer gals mix old-school gaming slang with iconic grandma sayings? A gaming experience filled with LOLs and POGs that's going viral on Reddit. Meet the seniors of the “Electronic Dings Game Group” who have introduced their own meta to Gran Turismo.

These bold ladies, known as the “Reverse Throttle Grannies,” don’t take their lanes in GT the usual way. Instead of relying on nitro boost or finding the perfect racing line, they troll the grid by going slowly and steadily in the opposite direction. A real enemy against the meta!

While they take the idea of speedrunning to absurdity, they drop granny gold in the chat that would make your grandmothers proud. With sentences like "Boy, in my day we didn't have respawn!" or "That technique, pah! I have better hand-eye coordination when knitting!" provide some valuable LULs in the community.

As unorthodox as their tactics may be, the Reverse Throttle Grannies remind us that the true MVP (Most Valuable Player) in gaming is the one having the most fun. GG, Grannies! Stay tuned for more epic gaming content and don't forget: "Youth today, always want to speedrun. Good things take time!"
