It appears more testing is needed before we will see these as RTR!

How about an application for a race boat? On the last lap and in the final straight, you light one of these. That maybe the edge needed and no one will notice, sort of like a shot of NOS! Just a thought.

That was realllllllllllly something!!!! I like that part. If you can put a little more positive angle on the rocket to lift the bow......just a little tho.

just before you're escorted away from the drivers stand with men wearing badges........after the smoke clears!

You should speak with Carlton Jacobs over at rumrunner racing he is up to 159mph with his rocket boat. I've seen it go 105mph in with a small motor in rather choppy water and it was breathtaking.
