Turbines spin faster than an ICE and aren't as elastic rpm-wise (correct me if I'm wrong).
Solid fuel rockets can't really be controlled on the fly - once they're lit, they burn at full blast until they are out of fuel. I believe that one of the Darwin Award laureates put a solid fuel take-off assist booster in the bed of his pickup. The skid marks from his brakes were supposedly a few miles long.
