"I want to be Casey Putsch’s new BFF! The aspiring race car driver has built a street-legal Batmobile using Boeing turbine engine.

The vehicle is a replica from the 1989 Batman movie directed by Tim Burton and has a top speed of 185 MPH! It only took Putsch 5 months to build the car using military surplus and race car parts."

"Casey told Discovery, “What kid doesn’t like the Batmobile? As an adult, it is now the ideal of Batman that I especially appreciate. Those things combined with my ability to create and my desire for a challenge are what led to this creation.”

"The turbine engine is military grade and made by Boeing. It was reclaimed from a Navy drone helicopter that dropped torpedoes on enemy submarines. The turbine drives the car’s rear wheels via a semi-automatic transmission.

Putsch says “I can build you almost anything”. And I don’t think he’s joking. He’s taught himself how to rebuild the turbine engine."



Look out Christopher Nolan,the Burton Batmobile is real.

A mile away would give you more than enough time to get away.

It would take approximately 20 seconds to reach someone a mile away going 185 mph. So unless you're hiding then I doubt someone would actually be able to get away.
