Status: offline 		Whao does it really sound like that? And is that like a Fighter Jet-type engine or a umbo Jet type? Ive seen em in RC amgazines before but I dont know the mechanics. How much do they cost?

Status: offline 		the engines themselves are pretty pricey, like $2500+ for a new one, I have snet away for a shaft drive kit that I am going to build myself and save me a few dollars...

I am trying to come up with something to put it into, dont just want to do a car.. maybe a car/wig or something like that...

Have allot of drawings but nothing concrete yet. Anyone sceen the movie to "Torque" maybe a turbine Motorbike, but still would rather have something more exotic. Looking at my K2 Kickboard I got an Idea, ever sceen one of those T-Rex 3 wheel jobs?

Why didn't you just post a link to the thread started by 96vette since it is his jetcar?

No, I wouldn't since 96vette also provided additional information on the other thread instead of pretty sures not to mention it appears that some of the members seemed to believe it was your car despite the original thread title. Perhaps, I've just seen one too many people on this forum try to take credit for someone else's hard work, but I would have at least provided the link to the other thread as well as reiterate that it was someone else's car when fielding questions and posting replies.

Status: offline 		Not trying to bash the car(cuz its AWSOME ) but in the movies it seemed pretty slow Was there any reason for this(not throttling all the way) or is that just how it is?
