It looked sooo awesome, even though they wouldn't show the finished product, I did get a look at the jet engine. I don't see how they're going to pull it off. But damn...

Too bad the website doesn't have pictures up.

LOL argue with what?

You called me a dumbass because the title of the clip was RSX, then when you say the final product won't even be a Celica, and the title of the show is "Celica Jet Car" it's ok...


Oh, btw... owned

You two are both losers if you can't agree to disagree. So get over it. Talk about something constructive. Otherwise, open a chat room on Yahoo and take it out on your keyboards. The rest of us are sick of reading about your discrepancies (sp?).

Now then. How about a group buy on the Video after the show? Lol. Maybe I'll just record it.

I didn't know that story about the dude getting embedded in the mountain side was true. Sounds far-fetched. Well, so does a Diablo D.A.R.E. car, but that's true.

Ok guys, the reason I said what I said is because I know that they are going to totally rip out almost everything, like they always do on that show. And also, they are going to strap a rocket on the damn thing, so 40 hp won't make too much of a difference (sarcasm). Hence the person that responded to my post seriously should die because I don't think anyone could be stupid enough to think that it would matter if it was a GTS or a GT. rolleyes

I'd die if they did all that jet work to the Celica and then put a V-Tec, Type-R, or Vortec emblem on the rear. I'd just simply fall over in shock.

Nope, they couldn't get JATOs so they used three of the biggest model rocket motors they could find, which proved to provide more trust than a JATO.
