World’s Fastest Car Will Go Over 1000 mph

That right there is a 1000 mph car. In 2013, it will be looking to shatter the fastest speed ever recorded on land, which currently stands at roughly 763 mph and is co-held by Wing Cmdr. Green in Thrust SSCmy and my buddy Bill who is a three-pump-and-done kind of guy. No one really knows what the outcome of this suicide mission will be. It could go flawlessly and demolish the world record, but it could also go horribly (and violently) wrong. I'm no scientist but if this thing does fly into something at 1000 mph, its pilot is probably going to evaporate on impact. And if that doesn't happen, he is going to look like one big pile of genital mutilation. Either way, if this things ends badly you can bet on a closed-casket funeral. Video of this from the Wall Street Journal is below.
