Anyone see this video over on compositestoday about the English land speed record car? Some pretty nice stuff
http://www.compositestoday.com/2014/06/bloodhound-ssc-lifts-lid-carbon-fibre-xxxxpit/
link didn’t work for me…
is this the electric car?
Ah…this appears to be due to a potentially naughty word that actually isnt naughty being blocked!! In the link, take out the ‘xxxxpit’ and put in ‘co*kpit’
This is not the electric car. It uses a Eurofighter Jet engine and a rocket Engine. Target speed of 1050MPH. Oh it also uses a formula one engine to power the electrics and pump the oxidiser to the rocket.
oh yes, this is the car that broke the sound barrier?
haha xxxxpit is a bad word…
very cool
Hasnt done it yet but it intends to I think!!
The previous car Thrust SSC broke the sound barrier in '97
