It was basically the same kind of rocket powered motorcycle that Evel used. It was built by the son of the man who built Evel's machine. There was no advance notification of when the attempt would be made because it was all taking place on private property. The property owners would not allow it to be a big public event as they didn't want hordes of people on their property.
