I just happened to see this and it made me laugh....

Looking good, I'm curious to see how this transpires with a more modern and well thought out design.

I've never seen colored engine adaptors.


My car used the ejection charge to deploy the chute by grabbing a clip upon ithe engines departure from the car.

We only had cardboard tubes and rings as engine adaptors. That looks like a good chassis for a rocket car. Looks like a Pro Stock and a Legends kit had a baby :lol: I'm sure it would be easy enough to get Jeff to make rocket specific side plates with holes to experiment with rocket placement and thr...

You could always try this aerodynamic masterpiece....... with a very fitting name

Great stuff, when is lift off..... err... I mean launch ?

I was always nervous every time I set the car off as you never really knew what would happen, lol

That's awesome it survived the maiden voyage. Putting a solid object behind the car will increase the thrust as it gives the car something to push off of.

How stable was it?

Just wait till he unleashes its full potential

Well, that @ RC10th bloke, for a start....

What have I done?

You're the one who keeps reminding me I have a problem.....

I wouldn't do such a thing, the pot can't call the kettle black.

Close race, congratulations Mike.

Thank you to everyone who voted for my car.

The laughing says it all.... some good air time though

How fast was it going in the first video when it veered off into the grass, it looks like it was moving along pretty good

How much higher can it go?

How much higher can it go ?

When he gets bored he can launch it vertically off a rocket stand.

That engine have a delay charge?

6mph short of some serious crap can't wait.....

It would be interesting if you changed nothing but put a cinder block a foot or so behind the car and see if your MPH improves. My engine stuck out behind the car so I could place it right up against a solid object, yours is just inside the body so I worry about the blast ricocheting back inside you...

I think you need more power...

Time to work on your aero package
