Supersonic Car
In three years into the future, supersonic car that have speed exceeds of sound speed is not hallucination. The researchers from United Kingdom are trying to make that futuristic car and the target will be “test drive” in 2011. That Car called Bloodhound SSC (supersonic car) is designed with 1600 kmh speed in the ground. Of course, this car will be only tried in the surface such as salt lakes in the U.S..
The project is very secret, and during in the finishing since 18 months ago in Hanggar aircraft in Bristol with for about 12 million pounds budgets. That car is a dreamed by Drayson, a car lovers who wants the young generation of U.K interested to learning the engineering techniques.
This Team have the same project (making the fastest car) in 1997. At that time, British air force pilots, Andy Reef, as the driver successfully drive the fastest car called Thrust SSC up to 1,228 kmh.
Bloodhound team plans to complete their project will be less than a year longer. However, the speed record that desired expected in three years. The machine that used is a Eurofighter Typhoon jet with a rocket that generate additional thrust 20,000 kgf. Each Diameter wheels is 900 millimeters made from powerfull metal with high quality titanium material.
“This is the opportunity to do something exceptional in the field of machinery and record-breaking speed in the land,” Andy Green, which again will be reduced to Bloodhound SSC.
He will use accelerator to ignite the jet engine speeds up to 563 kilometers per hour. Then the speed of light spurred by rocket booster. the Racing machine will pump more than one ton of hydrogen peroxide into booster. To accelerate up to 1,690 kilometers Hourly only need 40 seconds. The Car that have a 12.8 meters long and weigh 6.4 tons will accelerate faster than missile missile.
