Go Inside the Bloodhound SSC, or The World’s Fastest Car – Supercompressor.com

The Bloodhound SSC team isn’t content to just create the world’s fastest car—they’ve designed it to be the first car capable of hitting 1,000 mph. And even if they fail, it should shatter the land speed record 763.035 mph set in 1997 when tested out some time next year.The SSC has a powerful internal combustion engine that’d be at home in most race cars and it’s sole purpose is to pump fuel into the Rolls-Royce jet needed for attaining quadruple-digit speeds. Staying both in control and safe will be no easy task, as is illustrated by the just-completed cockpit you can see in great detail here.

I just can’t let this one go.  PEOPLE!!!!!   This is NOT A CAR…..it is a  ROCKET SHIP  –  just pointed in the WRONG direction.   Great is shatters a record set buy a older rocket that was directionally challenged!!!    But it’s NOT a CAR!!!!   What I am impressed with is the driver Andy Green!!!! That’s got to rock to pilot that spaceship!!!

Am I wrong????
