Incredible bit of machinery.
I was watching it on the news earlier this week and then just had to check out the testing results when I got home last night.
Hard to believe the rocket part of the engine has been designed and built by an 85 yr old man or that it has three engines. V12, Jet and Rocket! Amazeballs

Re: Land Speed record car the Bloodhound.
Full power it's supposed to be producing 135,000 bhp 
Not sure Kev about the locals and the God of Thunder lol.
Podman, no I can imagaine that speed 1000mph, although the driver Andy Green does hold the record at 763mph, so he must have some idea
