Very well laid out cockpit. Everything seems at the tip of his fingers without being intrusive in any way shape or form. You can tell with a glance that it's design not random spacing.
Good luck Andy and the whole of the Bloodhound team. Incredible stuff. Really pushing the envelope. The dedication, commitment and effort involved is simply mind blowing. Truly an inspiration. God speed.
I am seriously starting to get very excited about this now! been following you all the way. When will you give out info about the first running tests? as I cannot wait to see it rolling.
If you guys got a good pr firm to offer their help, that'd be awesome. A live stream of the record attempt on UA-cam would probably break the internet servers. All of them. You'd set two records simultaneously: 1000mph and singlehandedly crashing the internet.
When are these runs likely to happen as id like to follow this all the best in your pursuit the companys sponsoring you have put alot of effort into this good luck
You better tie every long bone in your body to the tub. The HANS device will not stop the car from ripping you apart at that speed when/if it starts rolling. Please! Please! listen to this post. All long bones attached to the tub.
Thanks for the post. I'm not sure how practical it is to tie every long bone to the tub. Andy has to drive the car! The Engineering team have worked very hard to ensure the car is safe at all speeds. See our film on sensors for how we'll keep him safe. ^JT
Unfortunately it's just been announced that Bloodhound SSC has run out of money and has gone into administration. Let's hope this project can be saved, otherwise it's such a shame to waste all that effort.
At ground level, it's much much more different than say 5k feet-10k+ up in the air too. On ground, you have dense air, exponential-like increasing drag, underside/belly air pressure that makes the car want to flip, and so on. You could brute force through some of the technicalities by say increasing downforce, but you loose so much potential top speed, etc.
Krazed Inferno explain? I think the precision timing and accuracy what's brits are so find of has something to do with it. Also been a international brand with funding by sponsorship which is needed helps!!
With just a fraction of the money they're spending on this toy I wouldn't have to worry about rent ever again. Oh well, I guess we all have our part to play.
He's another one of those guys who's so passionate and knowledgeable about his subject that I could listen to him for hours.
he's been sitting there for about 3 years while they build the car around him
Nice video. Thanks.
Rooting for you guys here in South Africa. Can't wait to see it happen!
This is awesome, best of luck with the project... can't wait to see it in action.
Very well laid out cockpit. Everything seems at the tip of his fingers without being intrusive in any way shape or form. You can tell with a glance that it's design not random spacing.
Here is wishing you every success for the initial 800mph run in 2015. Good luck Andy and the team.

Really glad to see Rolex supporting something like this. Better than tennis at least.

How was the 4+ year wait like?
@@drdoomgoat38 worth the wait
I feel the need...the NEED for...
.

a Rolex.
timmy toms )hh
🤣🤣👑 i got the Air King ,very beautiful watch

Thanks for the advise. We have a good PR team in place and are making plans to live stream the runs. Watch this space!
2021 is the year that
Britain breaks the land speed record 😊🇬🇧
Need one of these to get to work every morning. I might be early for once
When are these runs likely to happen as id like to follow this all the best in your pursuit the companys sponsoring you have put alot of effort into this good luck
good luck Andy :)
Brilliant, technology driven at it's best
Donald Campbell & Malcom Campbell would be so proud with the bloodhound project team. British engineering at best
That is the quality of the monitors we want, no flickering.
How about keeping same heading? Are visual cues enough at those speeds? with vibration, dust etc.
that's a good question!!!
Awesome tachometer! :)
Epic Stuff!
When will the run happen with the rocket engine ?
This is absolutely insane...
When are the tests beginning
Andy would be a great uni professor
Only the British can pull this off.
LinuxUser119 ik this is 1 year later but i got to meat sole of the creators from this and be able to see the engine/model of it.
What is this, job creation for unemployed air-space engineers?
I wanna see the charter document of this project.
How is the turning radius?
Wait.. let mi guess.. is rolex a sponsor?
cicci0salsicci0 you could watch the whole video
Rolex only sponsors the most expensive hobbys that people with money can afford along with their over priced time pieces.
Andy Green you are the fastest Driver in the World !
I know you can did it again faster
Good Luck
I hope the MS Windows of the systems won't start an upgrade/reboot during the run :)
When are we going to see it run???
October 26th - we're doing the first c.200mph UK run way trials: www.bloodhoundssc.com/news/bloodhound-go
Where did they get the funds to built such an incredible machine????
Could you imagine Guy Martin doing this 😂😂
He's got a set of stones on him.. I'll give him that!..
let's do this!
WHAT?!!!!!
No Onstar button to call for a tow if you need it?
No cup holders ?!!!
Come on guys let’s get with the program
Lmao 😂
Can't see the Handbrake ?
I'm currently running to the corner kiosk to buy a rolex...
👍
No airbag?
airbag in steering wheel ?
How come this car has never been run yet...It's 2024. What's taking so long????
Um, can i possibly get the info for those Rolex gauges? Lol
he got that Rolex Speedometer
Human to drive it. How old school!
Yep, it's one of the few rules for breaking a land speed record.
^JT
good luck
see how they call it a cockpit?
...and still we wait.

So when are us "commoners" going to see the completed car run on the salt?
George Johnson it's not running on the salt it's running in South Africa
Huh, that steering wheel doesn't look anything like the design that won the GrabCad.com competition.
Unfortunately it's just been announced that Bloodhound SSC has run out of money and has gone into administration. Let's hope this project can be saved, otherwise it's such a shame to waste all that effort.
Hahaha the main screen is just a windows pc with a ,gif running :')
I like
Still waiting and waiting,waiting...when..."?
To break the world record doesn't he have to go to the bathroom, while at top speed? The last guy I saw had a port-o-potty on his car.
Can u say space ship
Why not take the human being out and drone land speed record?
Adam Smith because it was his dream to go that fast, not just set a record
Because humans are better.
Still waiting....
inside andy greens coffin ...
look out speed kills don't you know.
Deon Hamilton It doesn't, actually.
just my thought, y not put a car tire on a jet fighter, lower it, put car engine and its a car.
The American / Canadian team already did: landspeed.com/

an propeller engine will do?
You won't be able to get it fast enough with a internal combustion engine
I dunno. Looks like a lot of sharp edges. You could hurt yourself in there.
If NASA had this type of technology maybe they could get back the moon...
ROLEX SPEEDOMETER! LOL
Cool but what are you doing with a Submariner (Explorer?)??
Get a Daytona lol
***** You sure? Anyway my second statement stands.
leave it to a brit put a rolex in a jet car.

Possibly, however BLOODHOUND's primary aim is to inspire the next generation of scientists and engineers
^JT
You can break a record, but you can't break the Laws of Physics.. There is absolutely no way a land based vehicle can reach 1000mph.
My grandads done 1032 mph in a plane
cool!!
it’s supposed to be the fastest land vehicle
Why.....
Why is it not in carbon lol
Lol
“Car”? Lol
Looks a bit tacky especially the rolex bits
Ugh, you sound so "calm"...
I wouldn't trust apple to save my life! I know this is windows just saying android for life and Windows.
World fastest car ? Is it a car...Hum no.
do it you wont! no balls
I hate all apple products!
I'm buzzing of this nonsense, cant wait
safe safe safe. what a load of crap. it isnt suposed to be safe, what is a point of chalenge if it is no risk
To win...
