Mike;
Thanks to the link to the H2O2 karts and the Waterthunder video.
After watching that thing run, I'm reminded of the last verse of the
railroad song "Wreck of the Old 97"---
"He was found in the wreck with his hand on the throttle, scalded to
death by the steam."
Regards, Neil Tucson, AZ

His preferred fuel seems to be rocket grade Hydrogen Peroxide, but
otherwise it's the same idea.
Be sure to check out the video! These guys have done a variety of
related projects and even claim
to have a land speed record. Have any of you heard of the
"Waterthunder"?
