The love of speed is a strange one really
0:03
I'm not quite sure if it's an adrenaline thing.
I think mainly it's more of a bug that you get
0:10
Addiction, you could say, really. Well, when
I was growing up, I've always been into
0:16
engineering and making things, working the workshop
till late. My inspiration is to make things faster
0:23
My specialty that I sort of
like to think that I'm good at
0:27
is making things go fast that shouldn't go fast.
This go-kart is the world's fastest go-kart
0:39
jet-powered go-kart. There's been quite
a few up and downs along the journey
0:42
mainly things setting on fire, blowing up, exploding,
things like that, you know, things that shouldn't happen
0:49
but sometimes do. It's a homemade jet engine
0:59
It's fitted with an afterburner, which you're
probably more used to on jet fighters and
1:05
stuff like that. They use an afterburning system, which
basically injects a load of fuel back into the exhaust
1:11
nozzle of the engine. And it reignites the fuel mixture.
And that generates a lot of power, a lot of thrust, and a
1:17
lot of noise. It's really
nice when things go well
1:28
Not only do we get the satisfaction of things actually
working, which is rare for us, also there's a
1:34
good feeling of knowing you've achieved something from
not very much, really, to achieve a big thing like
1:39
beating the Guinness World Records. So
yeah, it's a very nice feeling to have
1:45
It's a fantastic achievement of getting in the
book. Anything's possible, really, isn't it
1:49
He's got lots and lots and lots of
ideas. We've got a lot of ideas
1:53
We've got a lot of ideas. He's got
lots and lots and lots of ideas
1:57
No end of hidden secrets and little projects
on the go. Well, big projects, actually
2:03
Full of fun, exciting, and dangerous.
But I'm sure he'll do really well
2:07
I'm sure he will. We're very, very proud. Well
