Fast and Furious - THRUST

Are you guessing this post to be related with the Rob Cohen movie of 2001 ??
Then, I must say, you are absolutely wrong! I've got one simple question for you, "which is the world's fastest land vehicle ?" Still thinking ?? Never mind.. just go ahead reading.

The picture above looks weird, isn't it ? Named as THRUST SSC (super sonic car), currently holds the World Land Speed record (1,228 km/h). This British designed 'supremacy' emerged as the first land vehicle to break the sound barrier. The car was driven by a Royal Air Force fighter pilot, Andy Green. It was powered by two engines, similar to that of F-4 Phantom jet fighters.Earlier, Richard Noble, one of the developers of this super sonic model held the world land speed record (1,018 km/h) with his car Thrust2.

To your left, is the proud Thrust SSC team.The Thrust SSC is being displayed in the coventry transport museum, England.

The North American Eagle is one of the many teams competing to break the existing record, which aims to achieve 1300 km/h.
While we fear 200 km/h (or even less), these guys are just rocking!
