No idea, I think it might have blown the turbine or something

I think he spun his tyres so fast that the rubber blew off then the rims started spinning, hence the sparks and suchs

Doesn't seem to go that quick if it has that much power.

I think it's cause the turbine takes a while to spool up - it's like a jet car - takes a while to accelerate, but once it's going it'll blow the doors off everything :D

Okay that's seem pretty cool and stuff, but really why would you want that?

To put that much money into a little Go Kart that you can't even drive around in seems a little stupid to me.

Anybody know how much that whole project costed?:drama:
