On the same "mind = blown" trend, look up quantum locking.

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

I remember land speed record "cars" that were really just airplanes that kept the wheels down. This one looks legit. I hope no one dies.

" Land vehicle" .... it has some wheels and doesn't take off, but that's about it.

Nevertheless very sweet project with some cool engineering.
Just another Mx3 freak :)
