Bloodhound SSC attempts new land speed record

 
The current world land speed record was set in 1997 by Britain’s Andy Green in the ThrustSSC.
He reached 763.035 mph (1,227.986 km/h) – the first supersonic land speed record.
Now 12 years on, the Brits are at it again, however the goal is far more ambitious this time.
