If you wanted a super-slick, futuristic vehicle that could propel you at speeds of 150MPH, what do you think you'd power it with? Rocket fuel? Regular gas, perhaps? How about steam? Yeah, steam
This crazy vehicle is an entry in the British Steam Car Challenge, and it's powered by four boilers that'll give juice to the steamliner's turbine engine with some serious steam pressure. I never even knew steam could power a modern car, let alone one that could move alone at speeds as high as 200MPH on the Utah salt flats. I'm not sure where you'd fill this thing up or how efficient it is, so it's probably not quite practical for bringing the kids to soccer practice, but damn if it isn't a sweet piece of machinery. — Adam Frucci
