There is, as yet, no official definitions and criteria by which car land speed records are judged. However, the fastest speed achieved by
* a 4 wheeled car driven by an internal combustion engine, was 394.14 miles (634.39 kms) per hour, by John Cobb in the Railton Mobil Special on September 16, 194. * a jet propelled car, is 763.035 miles (1,227.986 kms) per hour, by Andy Green in the ThrustSSC on October 15, 1997. * weight: 10.5 tons
* fuel capacity: 1125 litres
* length: 16.5 m (54 ft) * width: 3.7 m (12 ft)
* 'engines': two afterburning turbofan jet engines, the same as those used in the F-4 Phantom II jet fighter planes.
So, taking all these facts into account, is ThrustSSCreally a car!
