Yep you read me right , have a look at these fun little gadgets.

The Jet driven transaxle could be just the thing for my MK1.

Now that is some cool stuff. 9.38ET @ 168MPH Beetle!

You see how much the superchargers were? Awesome is an understatement.

Good find Pete.

Some of those things (like rocket-powered Go-karts) makes the stuff done today look pretty timid ... doesn't it? Yeah ... OSH ... turning men into girls.

haha how insane. I like the bit about the turbonique rocket powered go-karts, jeeesus! Apparently one karting enthusiast acquired one of these and he has a website about it where he says: "According to all accounts this kart went from zero to 150mph in 4 seconds before becoming airborne and sliding out of control."
