Many years ago when I was a BoyScout (many many years ago) I used to get Boy's Life magazine as did most Scouts. I suspect quite a few of you in here know what I am talking about thru personal experience.
In the back of that magazine there were your typical ad's for worthless shit that nobody needs, one of which was a kit to build a small jet engine at home.
I can't TELL you how many times I thought about ordering up a couple-three of those things to strap onto the Go-Kart I had then.
Hindsight is always 20-20, but considering the only brakes on that beast were a pair of Nikes, I am glad I didn't.
But, imagine the fun that would be.... ;-)
