Great to see the spirit of Donald & Malcolm Campbell, Henry Seagrave and John Cobb is alive and well. Sounds truly daunting to me, but the best of British luck to them.

As an aside, I used to work at the Ferranti plant in Wythenshawe, Manchester where I believe some of the Bloodhound radar/electronics work was done. I worked on Ferranti Argus computer control systems for nuclear power stations - the Argus, I believe, had its origins in the Bloodhound programme.
