ThrustSSC's engine tests today went extremely well - both engines reached full afterburner with no problems.
Completion of the systems check is the final task before the first desert runs on Al Jafr desert - these are scheduled for Tuesday 12th November.
'De-fodding’ - collecting all stones and other debris - is in progress. Tracks 14, 15, 16 and 17 (of a total of seventeen) are completed and tracks 3, 4, and 5 are approaching completion. Once these three tracks have been done, tracks 1 and 2 will receive the attentions of the fodding team.
