130 MPH Jet powered jato

[Just Justin]

I've been investigating making a jet powered Savage and came accross this:
it's hard to tell, but some spots look like the video was just sped up. What do you think?

has anyone had experience with jet engines in rc cars?

I would say that wasnt real, the jet powered rcs Ive seen looked nothing like that

the jet engines are huge

They never showed the jet in the truck, just some jet shots and then the truck running. I also don't think that road he was on could allow for 130MPH. Its bunk. has me thinking though hmmm.

I have seen a jetpowered rc and it was only good to go straight and wasn't fast at all it's not worth it IMO you can go faster brushless

If they did have a jet in that jato, I'm sure they would show it, I also can't see how they would fit one in, with the limited space. If you watch the take off behind that gravel truck it seems to lurch, with jet power it would be a smooth take off and would not gain the speed as fast as it did, not with a jet engine that would fit under the body, it would have to be tiny. I don't even think they make them that small and if they did, the thrust would not project the jato nearly that fast.
