Cool Jet Powered Eclipse at the car show last night ---VIDEO---
I'm sure a few of you have seen this guy before... but I got some pretty good footage last night at the Pavillions Car Show and thought I'd share...

ENJOY!

Most people dont realize how small some jet engines are in comparison to the power they generate. Its probably a small helicopter engine they put in the car. It doesnt seem to be used to propel the car. Just for show?

actually I asked the guy who owned it... he said it does/has/can indeed propel the car... he's just got it setup to do what you saw for the show in the parking lot, because of course he can't "propel" it at a car show lol
