Flame and Thunder - Jet Cars at Santa Pod
|
Gary sent some photos from the Flame and Thunder event at Santa Pod
in November 2004.
Sticking a great big jet engine in the back of your motor might go against
the ethics of the Slow Car Club, but it looks like a lot of fun. |

One day someone was going to stick a jet into the back of a Volkswagen
Beetle. |

The jet cars (and trucks) produce a great deal of smoke on start up.
It pays not to stand in the grandstand directly behind them.

You have to be a nutter to drive a jet powered quad bike (with afterburner
of course). This guy managed to do doughnuts.

Flame and Thunder continues into the night and includes a firework
display.
