    Reminds of the (supposed) guy who strapped a jet engine on top of his vehicle only to be launched into the side of a mountain. :eek: Something about winning the Darwin Award.

    Heh, if only it were true.

    There was a Myth Busters show that covered it about a year ago. They tried several rockets on an old car rigged to be controlled via RC. Funnier than all get out.

    They went to the AZ DPS and scoured the records and a long time DPS officer said it had been going around for many years.

    Somehow, you can picture somone like old JS trying it....:rolleyes:
