1,000 mph Bloodhound SSC

The team that broke the sound barrier on land are at it again, this time aiming for 1,000 mph or 1,609 kmh in new money. Andy Green will again be piloting it if it does get built. Based on their past records, I won’t advise on betting against them.

BVM Car of the day – Global Expedition Vehicle Unimog

bo — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 04:05:15 +0000

If I have US$380,000, this is the vehicle I’m going to buy. It’s a fully equipped expedition vehicle based on the immensely capable Mercedes Unimog U500 that will put a Humvee to shame. At a flick of a lever, you can switch the driver’s controls from the left to the right and vice versa. The 4 wheels sit on portal axles which gives it an approach and departure angle of 45 degrees and a ramp over angle of 38 degrees. It will also be able to ford depths of up to 1.2m and drive up 100% gradients. The central tyre pressure system that be be controlled from the cockpit to give maximum traction depending on the terrain. Compared to a rival Unicat, this is considered something of a bargain. And seeing as it’s a home away from home, you know what they say, location is everything. Hit the videos to see why I’m crazy over this vehicle.

Just a reminder of the incredible vision of Gordon Murray. I doubt a car like the F1 will ever be replicated and yes, the Veyron doesn’t come close. For one, it doesn’t have gold lining its engine bay. Nuff said.
