The Fast and the Furious... II !!

The sequel to "The Fast and the Furious" is set to be released summer of 2003. The movie takes place in the near future, and Cars have been replaced by Segways.
In an interview with The New York Times, Dean Kamen, the inventor of the Segway, revealed that fans of the first movie can look foward to seeing some "heavily modded Segways". Kamen also told the Times that he would be playing himself in the movie.

Talking Pimped out Segways

I cant wait to see the Segway Drag races. Looking down the strip and seeing Segways pulling the 16th mile in 6.5 sec hearing the sound systems and seeing the Hydraulics contests.
