Jet Beetle

http://www.ronpatrickstuff.com/

One lunatic engineer.

The guy who built it seems pretty cool. He denied to put useless mods on even though tuner car show reps told him to put decals and rims, and stuff on.


These guys have too much time and resources.

He's like some kind of real life Wile E. Coyote
