Oh yea. But that car is a piston engine. Not a jet and rocket powered car. I would NOT want to be in the cockpit of either!!!!!! But I guess if you crashed, it would be instantaneous death!!!! Kind of like blowing up in mid air on a commercial jet liner!


I was at Bonneville in August of 1970 when the guy crashed in the streamliner going over 400MPH. I flew over the crash site later in the day. It was ugly to look at from the air.
 
Man I watched it again and it still gives me goose bumps! Along with a stiff dick! But no way. Not any more. Might have been stupid enough 40 years ago. No more! ;)

Speaking of Bonneville, what ever happened to that guy who was going to run a Rocket engine in a M/C streamliner? The guy who had a picture of himself smoking a cigar on his Avatar? Speed week was August 18th. Never heard how he did. I wonder if he ran the thing? :confused: And if so, how fast did he go?
