Andrei, If memory serves, Chrysler experimented back in the sixties with a few turbine powered cars. They actually built a few and handed them over to a chosen few in the general public to have them tested in a real world environment. Can you imagine the liability of doing this today? If I remember correctly the cars were very efficient but there was a problem with cost to manufacture or a safety issue with the turbine. I am really not sure. Dave Stragand may be a better source on this if you are interested in more information.

I was kind of thinking about trying a turbine powered D. The DOT find of frowns on shooting frames out of the back of a car, but a turbine if you could figgure out how to make a small enough transmission to handle the power. Somewhere I have plans to build a small turbine, maybe 24" long.. Andrei ------------------------ Yahoo!
