The world's fastest C5.
Following on from last week's attempt to attach a small jet engine to a go kart, http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/06...wered_go_cart/, someone has added the same style of Jet engine to a Sinclair C5.. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2007/06/16/jet_powered_c5/

Re: The world's fastest C5.
That looks like a fun project to do.
Would love to make one of those.

Not convinced (but im looking at it from work and dont have sound). Just because a car has a turbo badge on the back doesnt mean it has one under the bonnet

Re: The world's fastest C5.
Ether it is legit, or the guy has found quite a good jet sound on the net, and it just happens to match what he's doing on screen.

Re: The world's fastest C5.
I seem to recall someone who with Sinclair, used Zike technology to upgrade their C5, and that, running on new motor and battery, could do around 95mph.

Re: The world's fastest C5.
Ah, at last found a use for my C5.
I did see one a few years ago with a 250cc (I think) moped engine fitted.

Re: The world's fastest C5.
At least it's not talking about the uglier Citroen C5 Trout.
