True, but the car thing is so totally reliant on other people (Like those lovely chaps at BAe, Filton!) and trusting small bugs not to stick their heads out of the sand at the wrong time.
In the middle of the BLOODHOUND SSC is the MCT V12 800 bhp race engine which doubles as our APU delivering hydraulic power as needed, starting the EJ200 and of course pumping the High Test Peroxide (HTP) through to the Falcon rocket. The pump has to move a ton of HTP through to the rocket catalyst in 22 seconds and at 1200 psi.
