Design fixed for 1,000mph car
« on: November 23, 2009, 22:02 »
The UK team aiming to smash its own land speed record by driving a car beyond 1,000mph (1,610km/h) has settled on a final design for the vehicle.

It calls for a major re-configuration of the vehicle's two power units, with a Eurofighter jet engine now being positioned above a hybrid rocket.  The car, known as Bloodhound, will be built in Bristol's docklands.
