diy gas turbine

Both of my Mk1 and Mk2 jet powered go-karts are powered by DIY jet engines.

I built both of these karts and engines by just using scrap turbochargers and other materials I found.

I got in to building jet engines after seeing an episode of Scrap-heap Challange. Many years later I met Nick, who was one of the technical guys from that episode, and soon after I built my mk1 engine and kart.

You'll find a selection of photos and videos of the jet karts below, so please take a look and enjoy.
