Does it have a lot more left in it

I watched a jet car pull his chute and it turned the car right for the retainer wall at the top end and straight for me. So I'm gonna pass.

The chute came out and jerked the whole car sideways. The guy told me as they were pulling him past the et shack that he had to go clean his pants. I told him mine probably weren't in great shape either. I stood there watching trying to figure out which way to run when it dawned on me I can't run that fast. Lol He got it straightened back out, but oof.

$100K sounds like fun.

How much jet fuel does it consume per pass ?

How much does jet fuel cost these days ?

I tried to pay attention, but my method of payment was returned due to "insufficient funds"

I was at Budds creek (MIR) about 45 yrs ago and a jet car was staging and it popped a few times a couple of pieces of hot metal flew out the ass end....the crew guy was waving his arms telling the driver to shut it down and the driver was waving him out of the way and continued staging......I got the fxxk behind my van till after the run lols but all was well.

When you are standing near those things, it feels like it's beating in your chest and you will get a sunburn standing behind it. We had an exhibition at the track I worked at. There was a man and lady both running and I can't remember their names to save my life. The woman tried to talk me into getting my jet car license. She said she would pay for everything and I could use her car. It was the early eighties and I don't know if she just wanted to bring more women into jet car racing or if she was trying to start a stable of women drivers she could make money off of. Either way, I lost interest real quick. They were the epitome of strapping your ass to a rocket. I probably should have done it, but I was 15 and that shit was scary.

restaurateur - I think it's the right decision to retire from jet car racing, the great expense you described, and there is always a risk of serious accidents. The family is the main thing much she put in the first place. I can advise you to consider other ways to make money in different areas, in the article you can learn how you can easily https://wealthynickel.com/how-to-make-an-extra-1000-a-month/. I think you will be interested to know how to get a part-time job and spend more time with your family.
