The Super Shockwave Jet Truck

Uploaded: June 02, 2010 23:57:14

Description


Wherever SHOCKWAVE goes, it gets attention and plenty of publicity. The truck's best performance has been 376 mph on a two-mile runway, as recorded in the Guinness Book of Records. "Stand her straight up and she'll pick up 3 g's, the same as what the NASA space shuttle will do."

This truck was AWESOME to watch
Has three engines and flies

Have a SUPER NIGHT!!!
Catch up with everyone tommorow

Outstanding capture Peaches!! You really don't want to pull more than three G's while you are still touching the ground! Pulling High G's in an aircraft is by far the most fun you can have with your clothes on:-) Jeff #8661921

Peaches- quite a sight to see with all the flames. I bet it was a thrill to see this in action. I am impressed with the beauty of this action shot and while our eyes are drawing to the flames and flash of it, I found that I was so taken in by the beuaty of the colors and sharpness of the cab of the truck. This is quite a beautiful capture my friend.
Have a wonderful day, take care. #8664175
