Groundfighter – Twin PulseJet Hemi Showcar for sale

By Paul Crowe

Groundfighter - twin jet hemi powered showcar

The Groundfighter is a completely over the top showcar powered by a 572 inch Keith Black Nitro Hemi PLUS 2 pulsejet engines. It has an F16 canopy with 2 tandem seats underneath with an aircraft yoke used for steering and full aircraft instrumentation on the front panel (air speed gauge, tachometer, etc.). Everything on the car works perfectly, the Keith Black Hemi and the twin jet engines, just what you need for your Saturday night cruise.

The pulsejet engine builder also makes engines in smaller sizes and sells them for use on all sorts of vehicles, even bicycles! They are just the thing when the 572 inches of nitro hemi aren’t up to the job.

There’s a starting bid of $375,000, which should be enough to weed out the tire kickers, but perhaps there’s a deep pockets speed freak looking for something to fill the empty space in his garage. Interesting.

    Deep pocketed speed freak?
    Jay Leno they’re calling your name.

    That thing would look amazing with some minimalist F1 inspired body work.

    THE SOUND OF THE PULSE JETS FOR THAT SIZE MUST BE SOMETHING. MUCH LESS THAT V8. PRETTY COOL THOUGH.

    That…thing….is….In..SANE!!! Wow, more power then you could ever possibly use, Awsome.. Some bodies gotta take it to the salt flats at least once thou, I’m guessing it’ll need some foils to keep her down before some one opens her up, or she’ll be a buzzbomb.
