Racer takes aim at 1,600kph record

There is no thrill in driving the world’s most powerful racing car, the man who designed it has said.

Project director Richard Noble who led the team that designed the Bloodhound, the 1,600kph supersonic racer, said that driving the race car is not the exhilarating rush people might expect.

“Driving a car like that is effectively an everyday experience,” he said.
