This motor was designed by Richard Brown. He uses a jet engine-powered helicopters drawn from 930 kilowatts. The machine was coupled with a squirt of fuel into the afterburner exhaust to produce additional thrust.
Previously, he almost broke the world record in 1999, with his custom rocket motor. But unfortunately, the effort failed, after the use of motorcycle tires burst.
But such failure, not made him desperate. With his latest jet engine, he sure can beat the previous world record. Richard will begin testing in January 2012, and tried to set a world record in 2013.
During this time the jet engines are considered too heavy and too dangerous for motorcyclists. As is known, the current record holder is the Ack Attack. Motor is capable of racing up to 605 km / hour in 2010. Power is supplied from two Suzuki motorcycle engines. Sources: Dailymail
