Hey, got an extra kid you want to get rid of? Well, you’re in luck, because some guy has gone and created a jet-powered go-kart! Just strap anybody you no longer want around into this thing and watch as they destroy themselves!
The go-kart is created Seth Kettleman, a used aircraft parts dealer who attaches jet engines to things as a hobby. The guy’s already built a genuine jet-powered Batmobile, but I guess that just wasn’t dangerous enough, so he moved onto go-karts. Currently Seth’s go-kart of death tops out at around 100 miles-per-hour, but don’t worry, he’s working on increasing that top speed.
Sadly, the Ebay auction for the jet-powered go-kart has already ended (somebody got a real deal at $8,100) but don’t worry, Seth Kettleman really likes sticking jet engines to things. If you ask reeeeal nice and pony up enough dough, I’m sure he’ll make you your own deathtrap. I’m sending him my designs for a jet-powered shopping cart as we speak.
Soon to be appearing at your local carnival/fun fair! Only slightly more dangerous than your average carnival ride.

Meh, someone call me when he develops a way to put homing technology in turtle shells.
Let’s just hope he never develops the technology to put homing technology into *blue* turtle shells — then he’ll have gone too far.
