Posted October 4, 201113 yr Hey guys, i know its nothing to do with bikes buti think this is worthy of a thread. A English based team are currently in the process of building "bloodhound SSC" which is a Rocket and jet powered car (engine from a Euro fighter) which will be able to reach over 1000MPH!!! it will have about 100,000BHP but you cant really put a BHP figure on a jet engine as its all about thrust. 0-1000MPH will take 42 SECONDS! Its has three braking systems which are an air brake deployed at 800MHP followed by Parachutes at 600MPH followed by Friction brakes at 200MPH And just to put the speed into perspective here is what it will do Four and a half football pitches in 1 second 150 metres in the blink of an eye faster than a bullet fired from a Magnum 357 Its own car length in less than 3 hundredths of a second You tube computer simulation of it FANTASTIC!
