shock wave
Shockwave is a family of jet-powered American trucks, including Shockwave, a Peterbilt semi, and Super Shockwave, a 1957 Chevy truck.Shockwave is the first of the Shockwave trucks. It currently holds the world record for jet-powered full-sized trucks at 376 miles per hour (605 km/h).[1] The truck has three Westinghouse J34-48 jet engines, with a total output of 36,000 horsepower,[2] which allows the truck to complete the quarter-mile in 6.63 seconds.[3] Shockwave is currently being driven by Chris Darnell, who uses the truck to compete against planes going 300 miles per hour (480 km/h) in a rolling drag race at airshows, often winning. It consumes fuel at a rate equal to 400 gallons per mile, even more when the afterburners are activated. To slow the truck down at the end of a race it needs 2 aircraft parachutes[4]
