The "bespoke" rocket engine is a Falcon hybrid rocket, according to this article at allheadlinenews.com. But that might be false information, the article doesn't seem very professionally written, and also, it doesn't mention a third engine. And what does bespoke mean? - Ketchup Krew Heinz 57! 19:55, 23 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
We could use more about how much of the £10M funding they have actually secured. Rod57 (talk) 00:30, 29 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Had anyone else said this, I would have laughed. However, I absolutely believe in these guys.
They are shooting for 1,000MPH. I bet they hit at least 1,100MPH.

There are 3 other teams to date using rocket power to break the 1000 mph barrier and each of them including the bloodhound ssc could get their first. Healewis (talk) 01:36, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

On their website (http://www.bloodhoundssc.com/), Bloodhound SSC have announced that the first public test run will happen at Cornwall airport from 26-30 October, 2017, where it will make "its first runs anywhere in the world". On http://www.bloodhoundssc.com/blog/andy-green%E2%80%99s-diary-%E2%80%93-august-2017 they explain that the three runs will be at about 50 mph, 75 mph and 100 mph. This contradicts the schedule presented in the Wikipedia article.Renerpho (talk) 22:16, 10 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Since I was arguing with someone elsewhere about North American Eagle, and their chances of going supersonic before getting dead, I came here to check the facts on Bloodhound. The propulsion section refers to tests "next year" when they, and the resulting modifications, are all history. I added the details I was looking for from the Bloodhound website with a reference to their rocket motor page which provides the thrust figures I was looking for.
This is becoming a very current event and it's a shame that people talk about it on this page but don't update the article. If work allows I will do the research, but I doubt I am the best person to do that. Chann94501 (talk) 19:19, 21 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

not so much encounter it as generating it. the shock wave is something that forms at the vehicle and travels along with it. 2A01:CB0C:CD:D800:65BC:98A8:F1A4:12FF (talk) 10:04, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Done - well done for noticing.--Rocknrollmancer (talk) 18:43, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]Seems like this project has been going on forever (12 years) and they are selling the car now. It's an aborted project surely? Sirhissofloxley (talk) 23:50, 16 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
