Meet Shockwave !

**wonwinglo** · 09-04-2005

This is 'Shockwave' !! the jet truck powered by 3 jet engines with a combined horse power of 370 m.p.h,when this machine goes full throttle at the speed of sound,this monster reaches a staggering 36,000 h.p,as the flames lick at the runway scorch marks appear,the roar can be heard over several miles away and never fails to get a crowd around her.

...and there is the guy(USA) who knocked the wings off a F104 Starfighter for a go at the world speed record,well it is a bit more complex than that see www.landspeed.com You`ve got to admire the "lets do it" attitude of our American cousins.
