Jet Turbine Go Kart

This is a run up of my DIY Jet Turbine go-kart showing gauge values. The left hand gauge is the oil pressure (0 - 60Psi), the middle square readout is the turbine speed and the right hand value is the Combustion chamber pressure (P2)(0 - 60Psi). The left hand temperature gauge is the temperature before the hot side of the turbine wheel (T3). The right hand temp gauge is the temperature after the hot turbine wheel and just before the afterburner section (EGT or T4).
The afterburner was taking some lighting, as you will see, this is because I was running neat diesel in it with no petrol added. If petrol, is added or kerosene is used it lights easily every time.

fuckin engine my earss.....

[Hawksmist]

The engine should have been a pair, because the intake f or the air is right behind his head, it would have sucked his head/helmet with the air, till it blocked the flow of air and then cut out or exploded, the huy must be an aussie, there is a reason that we sent them all there

i dont get it why do people put jet engines on,pocket bikes,etc every video ive seen with stuff like that the bike,gokart or whatever has gone 5kmh

[jsmallwood2007]

In the States it's even legal to mount a Chain gun on it lol

[corotor12345]

wont really blow up, but it will start one helluva big fire lol... i like it, though i would take care of that mean looking toy a bit more than what this guy does, i mean, he's out on the road, with a turbine spooling at 1500 times per second, damn, i'd use an air filter, what if it catches debris?
