Bloodhound SSC 1000+mph car!

[IzumiKichida]

can you imagine the speeding ticket on THAT?!

[JimmyJunkster]

@jdrivas5 They found a dry lake bed in South Africa which has a better surface than Bonneville or Black Rock. Only problem is 1 million kg of stones which have to be removed by hand. Several hundred workers are nearly halfway through the job.

[101796bg]

how can it be piloted nobody can handle that?

[3TGV]

did that just drive on water?

[gamblemadman]

YOU JELLY???????

[Domocbgb]

so what chuck norris can walk faster then that

[MeMrJust]

I just love the Poms go, I am proud to be English! Hey gaylords, get over it! If it was such a fucking big deal, many others would have tried and broken the record by now! Real people don't give two shits about a jet on wheels! That's why we have real flying jets! Get it? Want to be proud Fucks!

[593OLYMPUS]

@MeMrJust

It isn't easy - idiot. Even NASA said that the sound barrier couldn't be broken on land, but the Thrust team disagreed and showed Nasa and the world how it's done. Ask American Craig Breedlove - he has forgotten more about land speed record breaking than you will ever know. Craig was beaten by Andy and the team - but Craig was a gentleman in defeat. Not a tosser like you!

[frunlakiso2]

hold on kids,why daddy? vrooooaaam! bang!

[DynamicAttraction]

ill drive this thing lol probably end up smoking a mountain without even realising it at that speed

[misterkatman]

It's shit in corners though.

[ATDOINFERNO]

@misterkatman [troll]Why corners? Almost no one drives in corners these days! [/troll] XD

[pcass31]

russia will crush this puny record

[gamblemadman]

Britain...... FUCK YEAH

[Yoshuayovel]

How can we get one???

[viperscave]

bullcrap

[spookyboy1000]

@viperscave You are wrong they really did do it because i was in the bloodhound challenge

[viperscave]

@spookyboy1000 OK :) Must have been cool!

[spookyboy1000]

@viperscave it is :)

[keithmayes]

Sounds good but at 1000 mph just a split second loss of concentration - like opening the window to throw out your empty coke bottle - could prove troublesome.

[kangsterizer]

@keithmayes i pretty much hope the drive is computer assisted

[TrueLifeAdventures]

Where is Stringfellowe Hawke when you need him!?

[bates507]

fuck being hit by that lol....... actually it probably better being hit by that than a normal car as you probs wont notice it hitting you.

[jalanparidedap]

imagine if you were standing in its way LOL

[Sicksoullleee]

fake and gay?...

1.till now y its fake

2. you are gay

[radar3699]

fake and gay...

[dreamopeth]

put Richard Hammond in it......joke joke

[krocialblack]

@dreamopeth

No! James May lol XD

[blueshift86]

@dreamopeth dreaaaad :P LOL - too funny!

[topgeartim]

@dreamopeth nah, put captain slow, he'll be the fastest man then.

[exinco]

wow...peak of technology is revealed

[Terrathrax]

I can't wait to see this thing in action! Go Brits!

[Eagles0818]

I would pwn on street races with that car.

[BrickCityKingz]

We're that much closer to actually driving in the FZero grand prix lol

[popshuvitskater]

i wanna draft behind this thing on my tricycle!!!

[justandy333]

popshuvitskater - hahaha No need to draft it, a tricycle would easily have this thing for breakfast! lol

[MrMilkshakey]

slow bullet a bullet from and m107 .50caliber sniper rifle travels at 850m/s

[gtawesom3]

sweet proud to be English!

[mjtracy]

Go Yoyodyne!

[grgrwvwv]

omg its realy fast i wish i could run like that fast

[GameReviewsAreBad]

The atmosphere is going at the speed of a snail.

[paultohot]

that is fucking fast man

[Letmegetspeed]

you copied this? omg

[mrpjspencer]

Once in a while im proud to be British !

[spydeman2]

this might be fake but the uk is planning to acctualy build it

[tomothy32]

it's not fake it's just computer generated

[jbat001]

Brilliant! With so much other crap going on, it'll be a good thing for the UK to achieve and make us proud again for a bit!

[mottee420]

wow that is like a saleen s7 wow very fast just like it they must hav changed der name lol

[elvis3422]

only if it was legal!!

[gb389]

0:26

[tn21beer]

salt

[windheavenX]

i bet you that guy with the gun is feeling pretty pissed of right now...my magnum sucks

[dudedude270]

yeah guns r too quick, use a knife (watch the dark knight for idea)

[sexytimebubz]

AND THAT MANS CUMIN MA SKOOL

sikk

[HiPfLiP7]

that is BADASS!

[logic2reason]

all be it, impression. the idea that this society, with all our real and hidden technology, has a hard time passing 1000mph on a land vehicle. We havent used chemical reactions in our best technology in over 40 years. to think its the best we have is a joke. particles that fly out the back have a limit of around 10,000mph using chemicals. but their are many of forms of the required force, that travels at the speed of light ( ie magnetic fields) just a though... but video still great... !

[teamrayquaza]

Its Faster than a speeding bullet!

Is it a Bird?... No

Is it a Plane... No

Is it a car with a rocket engine?... Yea!

Woah thats the top dog (get the joke hound-dog??)

[ingareinar007]

Don`t take the "bullet-comparison" too serious! It`s just a fun "saying". And -this team has the two last records, in 1983 and in 1997! So this is serious! Wow, go go go!

[TslAtticus]

is this a youtube video of a youtube video?

[iopener418]

It's called an advance in technology. Get used to it.

[YoungGun552]

I dont see the point of comparing it to a bullet.

Yes its faster, but a bullet has one initial thrust caused from inside the gub, not a billion dollar fucking rocket providing constant thrust over a million mile long desert.

[keemypc]

Lol very true

[redsmarties00]

Well what would you compare it to? It's just something cool to get people hooked on the topic. Don't be such a video-pooper and cool it.

[iCONICAACINOCi]

WTF is wrong with you! You are seriously wired up wrong dude. Fuck off!

[calvooo]

hope the driver is you, fool!!

[vipergtr21]

salt flats in utah. where they broke the record previously.

[dudecomixproductions]

wow.... just like an f-zero car.. lol

[PIRANHA26965]

on the closing scene after the car speeds away from the bullet they should have shown the bullet hittin the camera lense

[TheDragonTree]

They could not wait that long for it to arrive!

[SirDodds]

nice

[esterps]

000 q pasaddaaaaaa

0000000

[05336345802]

its somethin like a rocket with some wheels on it..

i dont think is is possible yet

[TheDragonTree]

Same team broke the sound barrier on land recently!

[februus]

Recently? It was more than a decade ago, you fud.

[sk8rat420]

already been built if you dont know yet they are still testing it and perfecting but its been built

[EQUINUSRIGHT]

There is no way in hell this has been built yet-check out their website!

[ingareinar007]

Correct. I saw they are building a "mock-up" full size of the Bloodhound now. (finished maybe?) Testing I think will start in 2011. Szzjooooom!

[MrNayl0r]

The same people built Thrust SSC so I can't see why they can't. :)

[popear1937]

i think there are hoping to start building either in september or later in 2010

[teriboffle]

no it hasnt because i happen to be a worker

[eddiesteele]

Who is going to pilot it, The Stig?

[05336345802]

lol :D:D

[k3ithwri9ht]

lol lmao

[LaiPt]

yes and i am the stig

[Fleetfox10]

@eddiesteele nah,,its the stigs supersonic cousin

[kutnaampie]

does it have a airbag, lol

[angloengland]

_/=|_ *KEEP YOUR CAR SAFE*

'O--O Please watch 'CRIMINALS OPERATE IN THIS CAR PARK'

[fyrdude93]

I can see this going terribly awesome!

[BrickMuffin]

faster than a speeding bullet

[Snyder29]

That is beyond insane. Which is why I really hope someone achieves it.

[NZbird]

Richard Noble's account of the Thrust development and setting the record is the most inspiring book I've ever read. What a mountain of obstacles that man had to overcome!

[philv108]

this will be so amazing if they break that 1000 mph barrier, i just hope nothing goes wrong

[Perranporth]

Beautiful! I really hope they pull it off.

[motsivad]

Richard Noble is at it again. You've got to be impressed by a man who has held the Landspeed record for 25 years with two cars and still isn't satisfied!

The Americans/Canadians are going ahead with the North American Eagle car. And Rosco McGlashan is trying to set-up a new 'Aussie Invader'. So it could be a three-way shoot out for the record.

Although i'm a Brit I wish good luck to all competitors regardless of nationality. All are trying to push the limits of technology and the human body

[ingareinar007]

Amazing! Personally I think the "hometeam" has the edge for now, as they`ve had for the the last decades.. But it is interesting to see how the other teams will do! First, I saw "car will go for 1000.miles", BUT, then I saw the good o`l team, and my jaw dropped :) Lovely now, to have sutch a crazy project to "follow". Still, I can`t really belive it..
