land speed record. The current world land speed record stands at 763.035 mph, as set in October 1997 by British Royal Air Force pilot Andy Green driving the jet-powered Thrust SSC. Green is looking to break his own record and has a new team and a new car behind him.
The Bloodhound Project The challengers. Itâs an extraordinary time for the World Land Speed record, with a number of teams aiming to run the worldâs fastest car in the next few years. This level of record-breaking activity is very rare â it happened in the 1930s, and again in the1960s, but since then it has been very quiet.
