The 2004 Movie "Torque" featured a Jet Powered Motorcycle that was really something to see and hear!

In my Army Days, Posts, I mentioned a young friend of mine, Brian O who was big into building Drag Racers and the like when he got a bit Older.

Brian built an Alouette Helicopter , Gas Turbine Engine ( everyone calls them Jets) into a Motorcycle Frame , and invited me around for the first startup!

He used a Pit bike to start the unit turning , when it later took , the rush of noise, combined with an immediate lack of Oxygen in the vicinity was literally "Breathtaking".

We virtually collapsed out of there.

Later I assisted Brian with building a twin Engined Jet Go-Kart, He had picked up 2 Compact Jet Motors with some Solid Fuel for them.

Brian Started it , in the Garage ( no wheels on it , yet), and it took off and went through the Back Wall!

When he tried to get more Fuel for it was nearly arrested , as the Fuel was classed as an explosive , which a Private Person could not legally purchase in South Africa.

So perhaps Governments purpose other than removing the weight of your tax money?, is to ruin your Fun?
