So if they have enough airflow, will the car speed-up ? What section does this go in ? Taurus is 4,500 cfm, maybe (2) mounted in front of rear mounted radiator ? Fan Car ?  "They laughed at Foulton too".  roverman.

Haha! Good one, Art!

I haven't been well lately,
But that one made me laugh hard enough for The Lovely Lynne to come running in.
Cheers
Fred
And thanks Art
I needed that.

Was it Hot Rod that ran a story about using garden blowers in a car a few years back ? They actually measured some amount of boost ... Well not probably the most compact package but boost is boost !

I think I remember the "thing", my gardner really liked it. Blown p.o.s. with a yard-like sound signature/lol.Cheers, roverman.

Like standing in a bucket and trying to lift yourself by the handle.

Jim S., I think your on/onto something-here... (2) weed blowers mounted on the "side" of the bucket ! Rocket Belts would "pail" by comparison.  zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz roverman.

Hi again Fred .I was wondering if you were better after your run in with the plywood on your tablesaw.Hope everything is ok. I miss your tart retorts. Tim

Me too.  Speedy recovery from whatever is ailing you.

> Rocket Belts would "pail" by comparison.

The Cat: I say let's get into the jet-powered rocket pants and Junior Birdman the hell out of here.

Kryten: An excellent and inventive suggestion, sir, with just two tiny drawbacks. A, We don't have any jet-powered rocket pants. And B, There's no such thing as jet-powered rocket pants outside the fictional serial "Robbie Rocket Pants".

The Cat: Well, that's put a crimp on an otherwise d*mn fine plan.

Personally I think that being able to drive across the ceiling is a helluva plan.

"drive across the ceiling"...been there/done that , MIB in a Ford "Galaxy" ?  stellar car with amazing handling, for a Ford. We're 13 years into the 21st century, where's all the goodies we were promised ?  George Jetson is nowhere to be found ! zzzzzz roverman.

No Art, not TV fantasy, Jim Hall's for real vacuum car. Now that mutha had a FAN!

Jim

"jet powered rocked pants", I get close, but never enough for lift-off...smart art.
