Thrust SSC (updated)

256 Ocora  5.6 years ago

Had to make some adjustments as my original submission was neither accurate or functional enough for my taste. I've now included the offset rear wheels, as well as accurately placed front wheels. I'm not sure what the top speed actually is since I'm on mobile and do not have a runway long enough.From wiki:ThrustSSC, Thrust SSC or Thrust supersonic car, is a British jet-propelled car developed by Richard Noble, Glynne Bowsher, Ron Ayers, Reece Liebenberg, Joshua Hambury and Jeremy Bliss.Thrust SSC holds the world land speed record, set on 15 October 1997, when it achieved a speed of 1,228 km/h (763 mph) and became the first land vehicle to officially break the sound barrier. AG 1 deploys the parachutes, and for steering I included a rudder, which wasn't on the original SSC, but it is beyond my skill level for me to use the offset wheels for steering. Have fun!
