You can steer with one hand and tune (turn a dial) with the other hand. Lots of fun, but not too crazy. Been there, done that . . . now 110+ on 101 would be another story. At least 20% more horsepower at sea level . . . how fast could she go? The 'Busa ride (impressive as it is) probably just feels like a go cart, but the Jet car probably still has feel of a little Honda when you climb in behind the wheel. So my vote is the Jet Car . . .

Though I have to say the engine placement of #3 is pretty interesting. I've never thought of having my engine take shotgun. Honestly the way to go is with the jet engine.

For pure thrills, I'd go with #2 and for added flair I'd launch it off a ramp at the edge of the Grand Canyon.

Who thought of doing such a crazy swap? It just looks kinda funny with the park bench wing in the front which is most likely fully functional. Bad ass nonetheless.

Personally I'd go out with a bang in JETBOY, while I'm sure the go-cart has plenty of oomph it looks like I might have to take some yoga classes before I'll be able to squat into that thing.
