The Fastest of Car in the world.
HRT car with Cosworth engine (usually for Formula 1 engine car) speed could be 320km/h. But now England with the Bloodhound SCC (some part use Cosworth engine) will be used for target speed 1600km/h next 2012. It would be the fastest of car in the world. The car will be ride by Andy Green whom handed of world record present.
The Cosworth engine task is pumping 1.5 Ton fuel for 23 second to supply of rocket fuel and power supply for throw air break by parasut, total power need 700 bhp.
Whatever hard the task, Cosworth believe to their engine performance could helps Bloodhound SSC for the speed target 1680 km/h.
Why Cosworth only focus to the engine?
The reputation of Cosworth based on their success for main engine supply to Lotus in Formula 1 but finally divorce.
In 1967 Cosworth decides to design Formula 1 car by their self by recruit young engineer Robin Herd from McLaren. He began to design Formula 1 car by 4 drives wheel (usually 2 drives wheel) and Jim Clark as a reader.
Herd very liked challenge but unfortunately Clark die and the dream of Cosworth also disappeared but Cosworth bos (Keith Duckworth & Mike Costin) still believe to continue this program was.
But finally Ducwothy and Costin realized that use 4 drives will get much trouble cause needs many important parts so no space for creation. It made Cosworth stop the project (forever). Cosworth so brilliant to made the engine but not for chassis.
