This is the story of Hassler's Hustler, one of the most amazing and largely forgotten vehicles ever to use a Turbonique Rocket Turbine for power and the only one to ever have said turbine mounted in the front end of the car. This is about innovation, experimentation, and the idea that in drag racing during the 1960s, the sky was the limit. In this video you'll get the history of the car, Turbonique rumors dispelled, technical information on how it all worked, and the record setting performance numbers the car was able to turn. There's A LOT going on here and if you love drag racing history, wild cars, and the always entertaining history of the Turbonique company, you'll love this video!
