When I got the email from a guy named Seth, requesting that I check out a creation he built called the “Grocery Jetter” which is for sale on eBay currently, I click the provided link and then promptly fell out of my chair. This crazy lunatic mounted a Boeing gas turbine engine onto a custom built frame, converted the turbine into a turbojet, and mounted a shopping cart body on the front for the driver to sit in. There are literally 7,432 ways to be killed in this thing and that’s not even counting the ones we are thinking of right now. The fabrication work on the thing looks pretty good as the frame is quite nice looking. The go kart style Dunlop slicks also look pretty tough hanging off the corners and the orange painted shopping car body looks to be right off the local Home Depot parking lot.

The jet cart is self starting, it has a single seven inch high performance brake rotor on it which will be a cool part of the urban legend surrounding your impending death, and it also has high speed wheel bearings for your rolling pleasure. As much as we are giving the creation a friendly ribbing, it is pretty awesome just to even look at. The work done was all high level and who wouldn’t want to go for a rip in this thing. Hell, just rigging up a rig so you could do burner pops would be worth the pice of admission. The price for all of this fun is $16,000. Is that high? We’re not sure as it has been decades since we bought our last jet powered shopping cart but for the amount of work in the creation and the parts/pieces involved we can see that amount being spent. Is there someone out there who wants it bad enough? The buyer sure hopes so but we’re not 100% sure.

Seth, you are a maniac but you are a BangShift approved maniac!
