#ONTHISDAY: Thrust SSC, driven by Bloodhound LSR’s own Andy Green set the current land speed record in 1997, achieving a speed of 763.035mph. This was the first time a land speed record attempt broke the speed of sound #2019HST | The Bloodhound Project

We talk about how in 1997, a car called the Thrust SSC, powered by two massive Rolls-Royce jet engines, broke the sound barrier and reached a top speed of 763 miles per hour across the Nevada desert. RAF Pilot Andy Green flew this beast, creating sonic booms like a fighter jet and proving that humans could push a car through Mach 1, shattering what was previously thought impossible. This was an incredible feat of pure engineering madness that rewrote the rules of speed forever. | Auto Viral
