Rfactor Thrust SSC

Give me some reviews of the Thrust SSC 1.00 car from the Rfactor? According to Rfactor, Is it good option to buy the Thrust SSC 1.00 car or I should move for the some other option. Give me some images of the car also.

The details of the ThrustSSC or Thrust Supersonic Car as available by the R Factor Central are as follows:

ThrustSSC, Thrust SSC, or Thrust supersonic car, is a British jet-propelled car developed by Richard Noble, Glynne Bowsher, Ron Ayers and Jeremy Bliss.

It holds the world land speed record, set on 15 October 1997, when it achieved a speed of 1,228 km/h (763 mph) and became the first vehicle to officially break the sound barrier.

It was driven by Royal Air Force fighter pilot Wing Commander Andy Green in the Black Rock Desert in the state of Nevada. It was powered by 2 afterburning Rolls-Royce Spey turbofan engines, as used in the British version of the F-4 Phantom II jet fighter.

It was 16.5 m (54 ft) long, 3.7 m (12 ft) wide and weighed 10.5 tons (10.7 t), and the twin engines developed a net thrust of 223 kN (50,000 lbf), a power output of 110,000 bhp (82MW), burning around 18 litres/second (4.0 Imperial gallons/s or 4.8 US gallons/s).

Transformed into the usual terms for car mileages based on its maximum speed, the fuel consumption was about 5,500 l/100 km (0.05 mpg imp; 0.04 mpg US).

The record run in October 1997 was preceded by extensive test runs of the vehicle in autumn 1996 and spring 1997 in the Al-Jafr desert in Jordan.

This is the first time in history that a land vehicle has exceeded the speed of sound. The new records are as follows:
• Flying mile 1227.985 km/h (763.035 mph)
• Flying kilometre 1223.657 km/h (760.343 mph)

In setting the record, the sound barrier was broken in both the north and south runs.
Paris, 11 November 1997.
