Driving the Shockwave Jet Truck. I took this at the Capitol Air Show in Sacramento CA 9-11-11.
Here is what it is like driving the fastest Jet Truck in the world, Shockwave.
There are 5 levers he will be using. Starting from the right.
The red handle is for directing the thrust up wards. This is done to not melt the track when the fire show is put on. Next are the throttles for the 3 jet engines. The long one with the knob is the chute and engine shut down. The one closest to the driver Kent, is for the fire show. He dumps raw diesel into the after burner. When you see him put his right hand up to the roof he is adjusting the fire that comes out of the exhaust stacks. This is one hole show. It is from the time they stopped at the end of the runway all the way through the full power run. When you see Kent adjust his gloves he is ready for the 300MPH run. Don't blink or you might miss it.
Enjoy
Thank you Kent and Bob for allowing me to put in the camera.
PS : Everyone loves your Chalupa.

Rest in peace my Hero! My dads name is chris like mine and hes a truck driver. I always thought of him as Chris Darnell driving the jet truck after my dad took me to the air shows many times as a young boy. I fell in love with the truck. Always told my dad your my shockwave truck driver! I made little labels for all my toy trucks as a kid that said shockwave. My dream is to drive a jet truck with my dad. Its my dream ): thank you chris darnell for being my favorite truck ever. You have no idea how much i loved this truck as a kid

@CrazyMarty 11 лет назад

The large red lever controls a flap on the rear of the truck. When it's pulled back it directs the jet blast and fire slightly up away from the track. When pushed it's to put more down force on the nose of the truck. The small red lever close to him that he pulls on through out the show is for dumping diesel into the after burner and into a ring of spray nozzles to make even more fire. This is the only video of what Kent does in the truck during a hole show. I was lucky to get the video

@RandomJ2023 2 года назад

11:52 He is straight up spitting fire for the crowd with the first red handle, He is straight rocking it too. Putting on a show, that was what he loved! Note: The fire happens on the downward full pull, not the up. Look at his body movements, loving it!

@CCWSig 2 года назад

Up is go. The afterburner are actuated on the up stroke. His handles are designed so when he pulls the large black one at the end of the run, it cuts the fuel to the engines, the afterburner and deploys the chutes in one motion.

@geetarwanabe 7 лет назад

jokes on you, he just has a throttle pedal. The levels are just for him to play with to pass the time before the run.

@curtispetit986 7 лет назад

actually there's only the brake pedal in the truck. the levers in the truck are for throttles to the engines, the red one directs the thrust off the runway, and the one he plays with is for the afterburners, the one with the black ball on it deploys the parachutes and shuts the engines down.

@karlrobinson4887 2 года назад

The badd-assery in the sequence starting at 13:28 is off the charts. How to drive the Shockwave: 1. Push all three throttles to full power. 2. Check RPM's and temps. 3. Thumbs up. 4. Open afterburner fuel valve. 5. Visor down cuz $hit$ about to get real. 6. Release Brakes. 7. Ignite afterburner fuel with thumb switch on wheel. 8. Ride that dragon all the way down the strip with one hand on the wheel like a BOSS.

@Mrkouman 10 лет назад

Cool. .. All the time I was thinking just toggle switches that was controlling the afterburner, fuel and jets with a brake pedal. . Lol

@@CrazyMarty Chris Darnell. He died on Saturday, July 2 at a Michigan air show. He was racing a couple of planes. From the footage, it looks like the Shockwave Jet Truck owned by Darnell Racing Enterprise show team suffered a mechanical failure; possibly a blown tire which caused the truck to tumble and roll.

This video may be 15 minutes long. But the hole video from the time they turned on my camera tell they turned it off was nearly 1 hour long. The man helping out side is Bob. If you notice he is not using any hearing protection. That is Patty Wagstaff you here flying around. Next if you notice the seat belts. He is using a 7 point harness. He uses a second 3" lap belt across his chest. It was added after his last crash. When he drives around he is checking the wind direction and allowing the truck to be pushed across the runway. This way he knows what side to start the run on. Then the truck will cross the runway from one side to the other then by the half way point the wind has pushed the truck back to the side the started the run on. If you were above him it would look like a slight radius. Left to right then back again.

@CrazyMarty 10 лет назад

about the 5 minute mark, when he is starting the engines the first thing he does is turn on the switch to the fuel cut off valve. Then while watching the turbine pressure / temperature gauge he gives it just a small amount of fuel. At that point just by the sound of the engine you can here it was starting to burn back up into the compressor. So he pulls the fuel off and tries again. A compressor back fire in the cab of that truck could be fatal to him. Jet engines have a tendency to do that when cranking. Once spooled up it's much safer but it can still happen. If you look at the engine in the lower left of the screen you will see the air condensing from time to time as it is sucked in. You can also see the yellow of the fire reflecting around the back when he is yanking on the fire valve.

@fmk6john 7 лет назад

Forest Rat Productions. Chest restraint has latch release and the five point has a QRB box as used in aviation, one swift punch on that and it releases all four clips, I'm pretty sure they will be well rehearsed in escape drills and would not doubt be able to get out in a matter of seconds.

Although, realistically, I know one has to build one of these from the ground up. I know very little if any parts could even be used from the original vehicle!

@tomcarver1063 10 лет назад

One thing that you DEFINITELY Don't want to use is the Original Tires!!! The Shockley's tried doing some of their Preliminary Test Runs with the Original DOT Tires!!! They MELTED!!! The Tires on Shockwave are SOLID Rubber Specially Designed and Made by Firestone!!!

@sparkimoto 10 лет назад

Yes I'd heard about that. This same problem they always run into at Boniville salt flats when trying to set land speed records. Centrifical force at speeds beyond about 300 MPH will cause rubber tires to decentigrate. So solid wheels is the only way to go.

@CrazyMarty 8 лет назад

+Tom Carver Actually they are new tires that they shave off all but 1/8 inch of tread. If they were solid they would be to heavy at speed and come apart. They are nitrogen filled so heat does not affect them as much. They replace them every 4 months.
