well lets see, Pettsy had to stop for fuel twice and I averaged 42.8mpg over the journey but only because I never went over 60mph!

Also, a short 3 second video of the jet car, for anyone who hasn't had the priviledge of having their ears blown out as it goes past! It should work in QuickTime of real player.

Haha, nice one Chris

Dan, and Neil - good luck with the gearboxes dudes
I took some photos and will post them up later on this evening
