Abstract :
IT WAS JUST OVER 15 years ago that Andy Green powered Thrust SSC to a shade over 763mph on Nevada´s Black Rock Desert to improve on his own land speed record. But when Green sets foot on South Africa´s Hakskeen Pan in 2015, breaking that record will not be enough. The plan is to shatter the record and top the 1,000mph mark with his Bloodhound jet/rocket hybrid.
