Cool my zip zap went about 90 mph mabye faster

what I did was taped an estees model rocket engine onto it and set it on the ground and hit the ingition button and it was hilarious wile it lasted.
I pointed the engine slightly down so it wouldn't fly off the street (i did it on the street in front of my house)
hear is what happened with the closest aproximationsof timing ican make...

0 seconds - rocket engine ignites
0.2 secs - car about 50 feet away from me and I try turning yet it is already out of range
0.6 secs - back wheels fall off after melting through the back of the chassis
0.8 seconds - lots of thoings happened around now.
1 - car starts heading towards curb because of loss of back tires
2 - motor heat causes the tape to melt and motor flys every where out of control up into the sky and goes out about .4 secs later
3 - car hits curb and the back gets squished into the front and it looks kind of like this
\/\/\/
\/\/\/
(plastic was weekend almost in liquid state by now so this was the result about as solid as play-doh)
4 - car up into air about 10 feet landing in guys bushes

so as I said earlier the car went very very fast
