This vehicle is called the Bloodhound. a mechanical device that is capable of reaching 1,000 mph in forty seconds. this is a relative jet powered car designed specifically for speed.
The Bloodhound is a three-year effort headed by ThrustSSC developer Richard Noble. The Bloodhound SSC vehicle is expected to reach Mach 1.4, marking “the greatest incremental increase in the history of the World Land Speed Record.” A press release claims it will also exceed the low altitude speed record for aircraft of 994 mph. The release also highlights specs as follows:
“The 12.8m long, 6,422kg (fueled), jet and rocket-powered vehicle will be more advanced than most spacecraft and faster than a bullet fired from a handgun. Its 900mm diameter wheels will spin at over 10,000rpm, generating 50,000 radial g at the rim. The car will accelerate from 0 – 1,050mph in 40 seconds and at V-max (maximum velocity), the pressure of air bearing down on its carbon fibre and titanium bodywork will exceed twelve tonnes per square metre. At this speed, Andy Green will be covering a distance equivalent to over four football pitches every second, or 50m in the blink of an eye.”
