Funny. When "Mythbusters" tried a similar experiment, they could get the car to budge. They did set theirs up a bit differently though.

1. Mythbuster car was stationary
2. Smaller turbine (from a Airbus if I remember correctly)
3. The test car was heavier (american steel - haha)

All they could manage was to rip the front/rear bumpers off and lost a mirror.

I like the results of this test alot more.
