Your comments are certainly apt, David. The team will undoubtedly need to work
up to those speeds and it may take more than one attempt but they sure have
lots of thrust to work with.

Hi Neil,
Its not that I don't recongnize Mr. Green's past accomplishments.  Nor can I
ignore the possibilities of the team.

It just seems that a 32% (that's 1.3106 times your current record) seems a
little optimistic, don't you think? 32% is what? 1/3 ?

I guess a lot of records are broken by over 30%, I didn't check the books.

Godspeed!

  I had an opportunity to talk to Andy and their chief aerodynamicist Ron
Ayers about  that car--


  How about this for a push- start vehicle? That's Colin Bond driving.



  Their previous absolute speed record holding Mach 1 jet car, Thrust SSC,
broke the sound barrier at the Black Rock Desert in NV. If anyone can do
1,000mph they can. Both of them are really good guys and their team knows what
they are doing.
