Wow. How much did he spend to have a 5 min warm up time and a top speed of 60k's.
What a dick!

It's still test running so with 700 plus HP quite a bit of caution is needed before letting it loose. He's a bloody good engineer and spent a bit if time getting to this stage, there's a lot going on in that turbine and a shit load of power to help it go wrong.
