Thrust SSC is a British jet car that broke the sound barrier and set the world land speed record of 1,228 km/h (763 mph) in 1997. It was driven by Andy Green, a Royal Air Force fighter pilot, in the Black Rock Desert in Nevada, USA. It was powered by two Rolls-Royce Spey turbofan engines, as used in the F-4 Phantom II jet fighter. It is displayed at the Coventry Transport Museum in England 👉 All credit reserved to respective creator. 😊 📪 [DM for credit & removal request] 🙏 #speed #car #vehic

There is no way this is possible. But in 1997, the Thrust SSC became the first and only car to break the sound barrier. This rocket-like beast powered by two Rolls-Royce jet engines screamed across Nevada at 763 mph, creating a sonic boom so powerful it shattered windows in nearby towns. The shockwave proved cars could literally outrun sound itself. Even crazier? The team is still planning to hit 1,000 next. | Auto Viral
