Kevin Therres of Prairieland Motorsports has worked with Milligan Bio-Tech in the past, showcasing his Jet Car. His most recent accomplishment is Prairie Gold, the world's first bio-diesel jet truck.
"Prairie Gold" has a body resembling a Ford F-150, but the engine is a J60 Pratt and Whitney Jet engine. This engine is commonly used in the T-2 Buckeye, an intermediate training aircraft for the US Navy.
The name "Prairie Gold" is in reference to the fuel that is used in the jet engine. Prairie Gold runs on Milligan's Bio-diesel, made exclusively with non-food grade canola. Prairie Gold is expected to reach speeds of 250 mph in 6.5 seconds on a quarter mile drag racing track.
