Turbine-Powered Prototypes


Design

 If it can harnesses energy and do mechanical work, Casey Putsch has either had experience or has a concept for its use. Turbine engines are no exception and Putsch has worked to design and fabricate prototype vehicles as well as consult when it comes to turbines. One of his most famous creations is powered by an aviation turboshaft engine which has been modified for use in a ground vehicle application driving its wheels through a planetary geared and manually shifted transmission.
“Seldom will you find someone like Casey who not only masters both the technical and artistic elements of a build, he puts all of his historic knowledge, factory-like practices, and above all else, he pours his soul into it.” -Flussig Magazine
