An
opportunity to hear the inside story of one of the
great challenges and meet Andy Green, the current
land speed record holder with Thrust SSC. |
The
talk will be held at Abingdon School in their Amey
Theatre on Thursday 7th October 2010 meeting at
6.30pm for a prompt start of the talk at 7.30pm.
This is one of the great British engineering projects
of this new century; it is a serious attempt to
break the 1000mph barrier on land. The project has
the additional objective to inspire the next generation
of engineers while keeping the record in Britain.
The project is now beginning to pick up momentum
as major sponsors come on board. Andy will enthral
the audience with tales of record breaking attempts,
he also holds the World Land Speed Record for diesel
driven cars, and will tell his audience about Bloodhound
SSC and the technical challenges to be faced.
The event is organised by the MGB Register - the
MG Car Club and tickets are available from online
through the Club website at www.mgcc.co.uk or by
mail order from Roger Cooper using the application
form you can download using the link alongside.
The tickets are £8.00 per person or at a discount

ten tickets. |
