Thermo-Tec Automotive has partnered in sponsorship with Bone Shaker Jet Truck, a custom-built 1981 International Transtar 4300 race truck, boasting 18,000 HP with 12,000 lbs of thrust from a J79 General Electric Turbo Jet Engine.
The J79 GE is an Axial flow turbo jet built for use in a variety of fighter and bomber aircraft. Some of the major applications include the Convair B-58 Hustler, the LOCKHEED F-104 Star Fighter, and the McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom, to name a few.
“Our truck produces heat…lots of heat”, said Rick Kopp, owner and driver of the Bone Shaker jet truck. “We needed a product that will shield that massive heat. Thermo-Tec’s products are number one when it comes to that.”
Chrissy Gilmore, CEO of Thermo-Tec, says “We’re excited to be part of the Bone Shaker team. Its good to know that our products will be helping protect parts and components on that fire-breathing dragon. Its an impressive truck, for sure.”
