  • Fastest Land Car Speed (Guiness Book of WR)
    The one-mile (1.609-km) land speed record is 1,227.985 km/h (763.055 mph), set by Andy Green in Thrust SSC in the Black Rock Desert, Nevada, USA, on October 15, 1997. Thrust SSC (Super Sonic Car) completed its record-breaking run in a matter of seconds, but was the culmination of six years of work and a six-week on-site campaign. Two and a half years of research went into the shape of the Thrust SSC, and building the most powerful car ever took a further two years and 100,000 man-hours.

    WHO: Andy Green in Thrust SSC
    WHEN: October 15, 1997
    WHERE: Black Rock Desert, USA
    WHAT: 1,227.985 km/h (763.035 mph)
