I dont know if we've had a thread on home made jet engines (using an old turbocharger) lately, but they're pretty neat: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWE0pMnwc94&NR

The King of Swag posted:I hate to say it but I have been and still am guilty of this (albeit at slower speeds), although I always do it in places that rarely have anyone on them and never leave my lane. Matter of fact, I recorded a slower short run once just to see how well a camera mounted on a tripod in the car (without actually being mounted to anything) would work: cut-out link I used to do stupid poo poo like that in my lowered 3rd gen Maxima. I had a close call with an oncoming truck when I misjudged a corner and went over the double yellow which scared me straight. I used to push my old maxima to 80+ on a rather twisty road with a 50mph limit. I've taken my Miata along the same road a few times, but I usually keep it under 65.
