Spotted at Laughing Squid is an link to the Jet Powered Go-Kart developed by Colin Furze.

From the linked YouTube video summary:

So it's finished and it's brilliant, it's stable it starts easy and the fuel system after a slight redesign (see website) works perfectly. Top speed so far is 60mph but i run out of airstrip so might be more in it.

More details are available at Colin's project site. Colin is also known for previously developing this Jet powered bicycle.

    I wasn't really aware of his work previously. The subject/title I picked was the same one he used for his Youtube clip (with some CAPS changes). That said I do find his build amusing on some level, fun crazy thing. But at the same time utterly mental and dangerous. I wouldn't want to try it even if he paid me. But as you note. Always worth a look.
