19.01.2022 jetcars.com.au out at Willowbank Raceway | Drag Racing's Finest last night doing their thing. An abolute blast to watch!!! Jet powered funny cars fitted with Pratt and Whitney J60 afterburning turbojet engines if only we could see more of them!

18.01.2022 Every day is another day closer towards another attempt at breaking the Outright Unlimited World Water Speed Record, right here in Australia! Dave Warby and crew had the Spirit of Australia 2 wound out to 402kmh (250mph) on the weekend during testing on the Blowering Dam NSW, Australia. The world record of 511.10kmh (317.58mph) was set by Dave's father, Ken Warby back on the 8th October 1978 and despite several attempts to beat it has stood ever since. The original machine, T...he Spirit of Australia was built by Ken in his back yard and sported a Westinghouse J34 turbojet engine which he picked up at auction for a whopping $69. The new machine is an improved version the the original designs and is now powered by a significantly larger Rolls Royce Orpheus turbojet engine, obtained from an ex Italian Air force Fiat G-91 fighter jet. While there is no official date set as of yet, the team are aiming for an official attempt at the record somewhere in 2020 and is hoping to reach and incredible 560kmh (348mph). Best of luck!!! :) Spirit of Australia 2 - The Fastest Team on Water Snowy Mountains Magazine See more

14.01.2022 Another year goes by, lest we forget.

05.01.2022 Yet another reminder that these machines are not toys. Thankfully nobody was injured when a large flycutter was inadvertently ramped up to 12000rpm. This resulted in the tool flying apart and part of it making it's way through the back of the machine, through a wall and into another area of the workshop where by chance nobody was in the way.

04.01.2022 Some more JZA80 Supra mil spec adapters just coming off the mill

04.01.2022 Get a load of this jet powered gokart! It's a Garrett JFS-100 which was actually the starter for the main engine on fighter jets such as the F16. This one however has been converted to a turbojet. Credit: Jim Griffin https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVuMnXzpLKtRzofGwVJsJgA

02.01.2022 jetcars.com.au doing their thing on the strip last night at Willowbank Raceway | Drag Racing's Finest. Unfortunately videos don't do these machines any justice.

02.01.2022 First post in quite some time now! I have been loaded to the max with work and running behind for a while. Just starting to get close to being back on top of things. Thanks so much to everyone for their patience, it's greatly appreciated. The year is already off to a great start and I wish everyone else the same #instamachinist #cncmachining #cncowners #haascnc #haasautomation #seco #kurtworkholding #southamengineering #autodesk #fusion360 #aussiemade #australianmanufacturing #madeinaustralia #cncporn #vf2ss
