In response to the "jetpack" weapon: 
It IS possible, i have made it (in my "Insane Weapons" patch), and 
it works fine in DMatch and you take no damage.  The only limitation 
is that after you are boosting for a while, you start drifting to 
the east.  So once you loose whatever momentum you had when you 
began your boost, you will be boosted up and to the east.  For this 
reason, I made the delay between uses long enough for it to be used 
as a "jump" button of sorts.  But if you don't mind the drift, you 
could use it as a jetpack.  If you were moving fast enough, it's  
pretty effective.
