ThrustSSC began high-speed testing yesterday with a successful run to 260mph. Modifications to the suspension settings were identified and are in progress. No runs are planned for today.
Please check our Runs Database for the very latest information on the progress of ThrustSSC - the database is always updated as soon as possible after the car runs - and always before any report is written and published.
'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.
An inspection of Track 17 which was used for yesterday's run will be made today to assess the impact of the car on the desert surface.
