Man, that is cool...Just because of the possibilites. I mean, a fucking prick cop pulls you over, before he gets out of the car, you just light that bitch up, and zoom, you're gone, he's on fire, and the evidence is melted. But imagine, that could be able to take you Back to the Future, burning tire tracks and all.

Yeah. Heh, everyone at our work hates Volts. Basically because I think all of their vehicles have skid plates, that take forever to get off and put back on. So it takes about twice as long to simply drain the oil and change the filter on them.

That, and the Beattle + Flower thing ... wow.
(In their newer Beattles, there's this little cup that holds a flower. It's apparently in all of them).

It's stree legal because on the streets the car only uses the stock engine that
was put in up front. The jet engine is only lit on the drag strip for races. That makes
it street legal. It'd be interesting to put one of those engines in the bed of a
truck possibly.

The volkswagon body design means it'll crash easily. It's shape'll make it roll
at high speed and VERY difficult to control. Kick ass idea though. Props to the guy
for actually getting it to work.

[off-topic-but-hilarious-story]

In The middle of class, we have these projectors so the teacher can keep tabs on what the students are doing on the computer...that way he dosent have to get up and walk through the skinny walkways in our class...Well, I was looking at the pictures you posted and the teacher was wondering what I was laughing at...Well, he pulled up what I was looking at in front of the entire class and now everyone cant stop LOLing...
[/off-topic-but-hilarious-story]

But yeah, I cant stop laughing...I cant exactly see how the driver of that vehicle can withstand the sound coming from the vehicle...I mean LOOK AT IT! THat thing has to be damn near loud as hell!

Mr. Marino: "Now that car is just jim-dandy...Get back to work Mr. Dale bo bale!"

Seems kinda pointless. I mean, it might street legal since it just uses what's allowed on cars (no jet fuel in other words), but you really wouldn't be able to make use of it's speed potential.

Even if you could, I wouldn't get this just because it looks so ugly with the jet engine sticking out like that.

More info





I don't know how "street legal" this is, but it's been claimed to be so.

Though really, you get stuck behind this guy at a light, when he takes off, your car's on fire.
