Bloodhound SSC (SuperSonic Car) Aims To Be The World’s Fastest Car
The World's Fastest Car

The world's fastest car will run at over 1,000 mph. At least, that's what the British engineers behind the Bloodhound SSC (SuperSonic Car) are hoping for, as they commence work in building the powerful machine.

A collaborative endeavor, the Bristol-based Bloodhound project currently has the support of over 25,000 schools, along with a growing internet following. The vehicle will seek to dethrone the current land speed record of 763 mph, set by the Thrust SSC back in 1997. Wing Commander Andy Green, who piloted that record-setting run (along with 20 years of experience flying jets), will also drive the new supersonic ride.
