I saw the jet car when I was about 12, may be younger. Once was enough.

Jet fuel is heavy oil fuel, which is diesel.

jet fuel, or avtur is more like parrafin than diesel, they won't be running it on diesel but parrafin, as it is lighter.
I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

i guarentee it is run on diesel, hence why u see the flame, that is the reason they use diesel so u can see the flames etc.
top fuelers are so much more fun to watch imo!

no one forces you to watch it
it's all about the experience. first timers etc will be like ''wow flames'' and the speed will be amazing to them.
theres no pleasing some people is there
