While cruising EBAY this caught my eye.
A JET POWERED GO KART. IT HAS A SHIFTER KART CHASSIS,WITH DISC BRAKES ON THE FRONT WHEELS AND BACK AXLE. POWERED BY A JFS100 TURBINE ENGINE WITH AN AFTERBURNER. ALSO INCLUDED IS THE ORIGINAL THRUST CONE TO REPLACE THE AFTERBURNER IF YOU DONT WANT ALL THE FIRE AND SMOKE. THE JFS100 WAS SET UP BY TIM ARFONS. THE AFTERBURNER WAS BUILT BY RICHARD FLANAGAN. THE REAR OUTER CONE ON THE AFTERBURNER IS FROM A DC9 ENGINE THAT I PUT ON AS A HEAT SHIELD TO COVER THE INNER CONE BECAUSE IT WILL GET RED HOT WHEN RAN ON FULL POWER. THE JFS100 TURBINES WERE USED AS A STARTER TO SPIN THE MAIN ENGINE OF A-7 CORSAIR FIGHTER. IT CAN BE RAN ON JET FUEL, DIESEL OR KEROSENE .I HAVE ONLY DONE SHORT TEST RUNS AFTER COMPLETING IT. TOP SPEED SHOULD BE IN ACCESS OF 100MPH. AT FULL POWER THE TURBINE SPINS AT 72,000 RPMS. THIS CAN BE USED AS A MONEY MAKER FOR EXHIBITION.OR BOOKED FOR AIRSHOWS, GRAND OPENINGS. WHEN IT FIRES UP IT SOUNDS LIKE A SMALL JET PLANE AND HAS NO PROBLEM DRAWING A CROWD. THIS SALE IS FOR TURN KEY OPERATION INCLUDING THE TILT BED TRAILER.PICK UP ONLY. I AM LOCATED IN SOUTH EAST MICHIGAN.
