pauln Posted July 19, 2008 Report Posted July 19, 2008 Amazing, we British have held the Land speed record since 1983 (supersonic since 1997). Do we actually have something the Yanks can't beat us at??. I still love watching the clip where the crews sitting in the truck, hear the sonic boom and go mad as they know the record has been made.
Toby Posted July 20, 2008 Author Report Posted July 20, 2008 I didn't know that, do you think we're just all a bit mad for speed?
pauln Posted July 20, 2008 Report Posted July 20, 2008 Just in case you are interested this is the opposition. I just hope they don't get hurt in the attempt. http://www.landspeed.com/index.htm

A top fuel dragster could beat that in less than 1/4 mile! I hope no one get's hurt too!
