Latest diary from Richard Noble...he mentions 4,000 rivets going into one section alone...I think we all here know how he feels! I wonder though, if he can afford to use CherryMax this time out? :twisted: ;)

Interested to see that Intel have pulled out. Wonder what that was all about.
I'm only a plumber from Cannock...

This is not put on as a public entertainment... it's put on to reach a certain goal.

Although I'm not sure that anything will truly prepare Wingco Green for running at 1,000mph on land, it looks like he's having fun 'training' anyway...

Very nice new animation from the BSSC team...



Wonder if it will all work like that in practice... :?

lets all hope so. cant help thinking that this vehicle is so complex that it makes thrust ssc look comparitively simple. anyone who has read richard nobles book "Thrust" will know the problems they had with that. times and technology have moved on though, you have to give the team all the best :D :D :D
