@SuperCrazyIdiot I've never seen a car go into light speed so I'll have to take your word for it :P
-
@dcwhitworth but how does that explain how it looks like the cars going into light speed :P
-
am i the only person that saw the whole car speed the fuck up and the air around it completely shift as it broke the sound barrier?
-
@dcwhitworth Thanks!!
-
@bellevueace6 Completely agree with you about Richard Noble's book. Great read, makes you realise how difficult achieving something like this is and how close to the edge of disaster they were treading. (And how they managed to make sure they didn't go over it - just !)

@boomerang403 Point taken - all LSR cars look irregular, although the shape is usually dictated by science and not design. As for a definition of SSC, the word 'car' would appear to be accurate. Although I must say that to question the vehicle's definition is perhaps missing the point a little.
car [kɑː]
n
1. (Engineering / Automotive Engineering) A self-propelled vehicle designed to carry passengers, esp one with four wheels that is powered by an internal-combustion engine

@NorseCrusader You should have seen how tight the SSC budget was too! They basically had to beg for air freight and such-like.

Was this clip from a documentary? From a filmography view point, that cinematography was gorgeous and the camera work spot on. The shot of the plumes of smoke on the mirrored salt flats is seriously one of the coolest openings I've ever, and I mean EVER seen to a racing documentary, if it is one.

@nelandquinten It's from a BBC Documentary called 'Supersonic Dreams'. You can actually find this on YouTube I think.
