Mayf;

I think they were smoking the tires, mainly.

My thought was that if the turbine system on the gop kart had 1500 hp
then
it should have vanished instantly. The M1 Abrams tank has a 1500 hp
turbine
and it moves right along, all 63 tons of it.....I bet that little bitty
thing on the go kart could not do that at all. I wonder how they
estimated
the power? Or whatever it was they was smoking....
