The rocket car story is true... sort of by Theofilus2006-11-19 12:55:59
  If by "true" you mean "false" by chaos42 2002-12-30 13:45:12
Not only is this story refuted on the Urban Legends Home Pages:
http://www.snopes.com/autos/dream/jato.asp

...but it's also said to be untrue by the webpage for which Theofilus provides the link!

"...if you look at the physics of the story, you'll see that the whole pile of bullcrap is impossible, regardless of the human angle. It's simple stuff, too. You don't have to be an aerospace engineer to see what I'm talking about."
