摘要

Kids in Indianapolis no longer have an excuse to be late for school now that adrenaline junkie Paul Stender has created a jet-powered school bus. Equipped with a 42,000-hp fighter jet engine and an exhaust that shoots out 80-ft flames, the "School Time" can reach speeds of up to 367 mph. While the hot rod looks like a real school bus, Stender actually custom built it using a GE J-79 jet engine from a McDonnell Douglas F4 Phantom fighter jet. Parents needn't worry, though. School Time's engine is so big, its cabin only has space for three passengers, so instead of transporting kids it typically performs at monster truck shows. Stender knew that kids would be interested in his creation, however, so there's actually a message behind the madness. "I built the bus for two reasons," Stender told Bar-croft Media. "The first is to entertain people because, come on, it's a jet bus. "The second is to inspire kids to keep away from drugs," Stender added. "It's important for them to have active hobbies and creative interests to keep busy and keep away from bad influences. That's why we wrote our motto on the side of the bus: Jets are hot-drugs are not."
