2) Thrust 2 - 633 MPH
The Thrust 2 is a British designed jet car that once held the land-speed record, before it was overtaken by another British machine, the Thrust SSC. The car was designed by John Ackroyd and driven by Richard Noble. It broke the record on October 4, 1983 at the Black Rock Desert in Nevada USA. The final top speed was 633 mph, after an average of two runs was taken. The car, like the Thrust SSC, is being shown at the Coventry Transport Museum in Coventry, England.
