Interesting fact from Andy, if the car does reach 1,000 mph it will not only beat the land speed record but will break the record held for aircraft at low level (not sure how low level is defined in that case)
Rephrase, to “would break the officially measured by the Guinness Book of Records low level aircraft” - I’m sure there are more than a few that have done 870kts+ at low level but were never ‘officially’ measured for record purposes. If you catch my drift...

Good luck Dead Dog, smash the record and get 1000 recorded officially
