I Just Love Cars And Planes,

put them together with some pyrotechnics's and you have, Team Chaos! the show features a race between a jet powered truck and two planes, the truck has a T-2 Buckeye Navy engine that was built during the 1950s during the Korean War, it means the truck can travel from 0-to-100kph (60mph) in just over a second or put another way the 12,000 horsepower vehicle can go from 0 to 375 mph in just 6 seconds, but the show is stage to give the impression that it is all going horribly wrong, the team made its debut at EAA AirVenture 2011 earlier this week, with each of the three members performing solo acts as well, Randy Harris, who flies a Skybolt 300, Gary Ward flying his MX2, and Neal Darnell, of Flash Fire Jet Truck, make up the group and are sometimes joined by Darnell’s son, Chris, in the jet truck, “when we all meet together and there’s a wall of fire, we have had people run away screaming, thinking that we hit each other,” Harris said, what a show this must be to watch, I wish I was there to see it.
