dangit I wish I could see. . but lemme guess. . .a gas turbine mounted onto a go-kart frame.

I know a guy that built one useing the turbo off a cummins 500. built an afterburner and everything for it, at the end of the 1/4 he was doing 70mph.

thing sounds like a friggin cannon going off trying to get the afterburner to stay lit.

Woulda been even better if he put a boost gauge on it.



I'm gonna hook mine up to the blender for some serious Margarita's.

Nope, it's a push mower with a B&S motor rigged with a working turbo. With what looks like 3" hoses looping the turbo to the intake and exhaust.
