Cars get faster every day, and ever since we started driving them, we've always tried to go faster. But is there a limit to how fast a car can go? We did some math, made some calculations, and talked to some scientists to find out where the barriers are in making a car go faster. So what is the limiting factor? Is it the engine? The tires? You'll have to watch to the end to find out!

Better question is, how do you make a car go that fast without killing the driver if the slightest glitch happens. Jessie Combs died trying to break this record. A slight gust of wind, a tiny pebble the size of a pencil eraser, even turning the steering wheel a fraction a degree is all it takes for a disaster to occur.

First many thought you couldn’t fly faster than the speed of sound, it was done and than was doubled. A land vehicle couldn’t do it, then they did it. It takes huge knowledgeable effort and money to do this. A totally committed crew and huge amount of patience. That on top of not getting discouraged with the multiple failures experienced prior to cracking 1000 mph in a land vehicle.

@Biketunerfy Год назад

The problem is those including Craig breedloves (the spirit of America) car (that was disqualified) that he entered into the land speed record car event which means it has to have 4 wheels not 3. The 3 wheeled vehicles now have their own class so unless your vehicle has 4 wheels it can not attain a record in that class of 4 wheeled cars that the thrust SSC holds the record for. The thrusts SSC beat breedloves record anyway because it broke the sound barrier on land first.

@Donut 3 года назад

We actually had to cut a section of the video talking about that, but in short its a combo of track quality and distance.

The medicine says women handle G force better than men- it's a "biological thing"- sorta makes up for all the other superiority myths you've been brought up on, doesn't it?Actually, looking at your name,I suspect you should take up the qualifications of women with Angela Merkel- even if you don't agree with all of her politics, you have to respect her ability; those who haven't aren't much around the Bundestag any more. In Jessi Combs case, she was fully licensed and certified, the car was inspected and cleared by very skilled technicians of the sanctioning body, not the American Eagle team. In her early teens, she was doing things with dirt bikes that boys six to ten years older couldn't- and i rather doubt you could now. I'm not family, and I never met the lady, but I was deeply impressed by what she did, time after time.

I attended an educational show as an HP consultant for scientific calculators on 2012. At that time, the Bloodhound LSR project was being introduced as the SSC. So I took that project as my presentation theme. After thoroughly studying math involved and running several calculations, I arrived at a speed figure of 1058.8 mph if the trial run was performed at 30 degrees Celsius ambient temperature and the 794-meter elevation at Hakskeen Pan. I figured that the combined power available from the jet engine - rocket motor combination amounted to over 100,000 horsepower to overcome the 19-ton drag force exerted over the car body. However, I could not consider the second-order effects stemming from the supersonic shock wave, being that the nonlinear analysis can not be undertaken without the aid of advanced hydrodynamic software.

In other words no car will ever do what you’re talking about unless you define “car” in such a way as to include horizontal flying rockets that have tires attached and are kept (more-or-less) in contact with the ground under them. To call this contraction a car I would add the additional requirement that the tires have to maintain contact with the ground to the same extent that they had contact in the came proportion as the fastest production car when it reaches its top speed. In other words, it doesn’t count if the rocket is flying and the tires are just sort of touching the ground but mostly just skipping along for the ride. Excellent RU-vid! Very informative. I had my Jaguar XJ12 up to 130+ MPH for an hour one time. The scariest part was how fast the other cars on the freeway approached me. At 130 I was still about 500 rpm below the car’s redline so there was a little more speed I might have squeezed out, but I couldn’t tell if the several cars on the freeway ahead of me were too close together for me to maneuver a 20’ long 6000 lbs machine around. Looking back it was fun. But at that moment it was scary.

These land speed records remind me of high school physics class way back in the stone age. The teacher hammered into our heads that 'deceleration' isn't a real physics term, that 'acceleration' simply means a change in velocity so you can have positive acceleration or negative acceleration.

@IceSpoon 2 года назад

It blew my mind when I saw The Expanse and they "accelerate backwards" in order to stop. I felt a new realm of knowledge came to my life, because I never understood the practicality of negative acceleration in a world where you can just decelerate. Damn you, high school physics teacher.

@ccmps 3 года назад

I remember the Discovery Channel special on the Thrust SSC back in the day. All the struggles, the danger involved. It was very, very hard to pull that off. The driver was a former Royal Air Force pilot if I'm not mistaken, and the project manager was the former driver of the Thrust, which held the world record at the time, getting close to the speed of sound, but not over it.

@nigelft 2 года назад

Yup ... I'm old enough to remember when Richard Noble smashed the world land speed record in Thrust 2, which I got to see in person, in a vehicle museum, iurc, in Coventry. Aside from that, it was notable for the fact that Jaguar took one of the fastest coupé at the time (XJS ?), and turned it into the world's fastest 'fire engine' (OK, more like a car out fitted with a big enough tank for fire suppression), just in case Thrust 2 crashed ... I still have a vague visually memory of watching it power across the dry lake bed, the mirage effect making it look like it _was_ travelling across water, with a huge 'roosters' tail of dust, right behind it ... When Trust SSC came around, by then he knew he was a touch too old to drive it. Though he was a key figure in the project, even he would say he had a more hands off rôle than portrayed, but given he _did_ practically hold the land speed record for the longest time, he appreciated actually being bought on-board. As for the driver of Thrust SSC, if memory recalls, not only was he an retired RAF Squadron Leader (the equivalent to a Major in both the Army, and Royal Marines; and Lt. Commander in the Royal Navy - making him a NATO OF-3), but he was a Sqn Ldr of the Red Arrows, the RAF's Display Team, making him a man formerly in charge of one of the world's elite aerobatic display teams, requiring an insane level of skill just to be even considered to join them, as even a few seconds miss-timing can end in serious crashes, during air displays. I wish I could remember that pilot's name, as he - rightfully - deserves recognition for being the first person to drive faster than Mach 1, which would've pushed even his skills to the limit ... ... but seeing an aerial photo of Thrust SSC, a clear line, caused by the supersonic shock wave spreading laterally across the salt/sand, is still an incredible image ... ... hence I can't wait to see what Bloodhound can do, at maximum throttle ...

@joetroutt7425 Год назад

He touched on it very shortly but downforce is really the limiting factor. The faster the vehicle goes the more downforce that is applied keeping the vehicle from flying up off of the ground essentially making the tores flat from trying to keep it from flying above the ground out of control therefore reaching maximum downforce load.
