Interesting concept. I'm not sure which is scarier: being dragged along at high speed by two large engines with some weird kind of power coupling between them, or being slung below (and much closer to!) those engines in an open seat. Pod racing is not for the faint of heart (me :eeek: )! Nic work!

There are sensors in the seat that compensates for such actions. But if that doesn't work, the system shuts down. ;)

Very cool! I too don't know if I would want to be hanging off the bottom though.

Many have said it. But maybe not for the faint of heart. ;)
