Art Arfons

Keeping with dare devils, one of the greatest land speed racers ever, died on Monday. Art Arfons wasn’t just a guy with a need for speed, he was also innovative, talented and didn’t let anything stand in his way.

He bought a jet engine from an F104 Starfighter and when he asked for the manual, he was told the manual was still classified and he couldn’t have a copy.

So he built the Jet Engine without the manual and it worked!

What a guy.
