    Jet turbine powered ATV !!

    http://www.popsci.com/diy/article/20...et-powered-atv

    To go along with my 'I Need a new hobby' thread, I thought I'd post this just for grins. Some nutjob managed to mount a jet turbine onto a UTV (a side by side seat ATV vehicle).



    1800 degrees exhaust from that turbine cannot possibly make Smokey the Bear happy.



    PS - I picked up my ATV on Friday, and with a three day weekend, I managed to ride it around the yard a total of ... one time.
    Its turning out to be quite an expensive startup hobby, as the trailer and gear, plus tags, state sticker and misc. crap are adding up to well over $500.
    Oh if a man tried to take his time on Earth and prove before he died what one man's life could be worth, well I wonder what would happen to this world ? - Harry Chapin

    What an asshat...a jet engine for something designed to twist and turn...high center of gravity...he's either going to drive like a pooch or roll it big time (I'd like to see that).
