    This particular incident is claimed to have set the record for the
    highest ever "jacob's ladder" ever generated.

    Here's a link describing this phenomenom:

    The two booster rockets are solid fuel (while the main engines are
    liquid-fuel).
    As far as I know they are "light 'em and stand back" and don't have any
    kind of "throttle".

    Apparently the boosters only run for two-and-a-bit minutes before being
    ejected.

  5. There is a bloke by the name of Crowe, in Grafton that used to build race
    carts (or whatever he called them). And he had a very impressive shed and he
    was showing me the ignition system of one of his machine (as we got talking
    about z13 igniters.....).

    Amazing things....

    Why prolong the agony? After two-and-a-bit minutes I've generally already
    been asleep for one-and-a-bit minutes!
