Jet Powered Quad at Monster Jam 2008 MTS Center Winnipeg

Jet Powered Quad Winnipeg

They said it has the horsepower of a Monster Truck but weighs about as much as a single TIRE from a Monster Truck. I'd love to see what this thing can REALLY do!

In a night of unbelievable engine sounds, I am sure it was the loudest thing of the night.

roflmao it does not, i say it again, not have the power of a monster truck engine x)

I'm so glad you repeated yourself so we can have no doubt as to your cleverness... something that was evident from the very beginning of your post with the ever mature 'roflmao'.

I based my statement on information given at the Monster Jam announcer at the time I took the video. Since your (half) witty comment, I've done a bit of research and the jet powered quad/ATV is rated at roughly 2000 horsepower and most Monster Trucks come in at between 1500 and 1800 from what I've read.

...So perhaps what you might have meant to say was that a monster truck engine does not, I say it again, not have the power of a jet engine.

(sigh!)

O, just because he did it with the flame/blast towards the opening of where the Monster trucks entered and Monster Jam staff were standing. Myself included. I guess it was a safety thing.....I know he got in crap for that tho.

[crashingkid]
