Thrust appears

The world record breaking Thrust SSC car is to make its first public appearance in Britain at the weekend after speeding into the line-up of the Lord Mayor of London's Show. Squadron Leader Andy Green could complete the historic route through the capital's streets in just 6.98 seconds if he was to repeat his incredible 763.035mph land speed record, in Nevada last month. But organisers estimate the car will take more than 32 minutes to travel from Guildhall in the City, to the Royal Courts of Justice.
