A jet truck with airplane engines accelerated to 300 km/h and put on a firefighting show in Florida.
A jet-powered semi truck (that's the name of this monster) with roaring turbines sped down the racetrack, leaving a trail of flames several feet high at the 2026 Fire Night event at Orlando Speed World Dragway. The crazy truck accelerated to 323 km/h in about 7 seconds.
Jet trucks appeared in the second half of the 20th century - hobbyists installed aircraft engines on them. One of the most famous of them is the American Shockwave with three turbines with a capacity of about 36 thousand horsepower. He became famous for racing airplanes. However, the shows are not without risk: in 2022, the driver of one such truck, Chris Darnell, died during a show in Michigan after a flat tire and the vehicle caught fire.
