“The car was built because I wanted the wildest street-legal ride possible. With this project, I was able to use my engineering skills (I have a PhD in Mechanical Engineering from Stanford University) to design the car without the distraction of how other people have done it in the past - because no one has.”

thats insane!! However theres no way a 10ft flame could be street legal. Its not even legal for people to hook up their exhaust to shoot small flames

title is misleading somewhat, it infers a piston engine, jet turbines make lbs of thrust not hp, fun beetle
