UFrançois Gissy ngokoqobo ngumFrentshi. Injineli ngoqeqesho, uGissy uzinikele ekusetheni iirekhodi zesantya sebhayisekile ngexesha lakhe lokuphumla. Kwiveki ephelileyo wabeka irekhodi lakhe ngokufikelela kwisantya esiphezulu se-333km/h ngemizuzwana emi-5 nje, ekhwele ibhayisekile yerocket – irekhodi langaphambili laliyi-285km/h.
EZIPHUMELELEYO: I-Bloodhound SSC: Kuthatha ntoni ukugqitha ku-1609 km/h?
Isantya esiphunyeziweyo sisenokungachukumisi, ukuba ibingekuko ukubonakala kwebhayisekile. UFrançois Gissy ubonakala enyanzelisa ukuba ibhayisekile ihlale ifana… ibhayisekile. Iipedali zisekhona (ngeyiphi injongo, andazi…) kwaye utshintsho lwesakhiwo lujonge kuphela i-wheelbase ende ukunyusa uzinzo, i-engile yokuvula yoluhlu lokuqhuba ngenjongo efanayo, kwaye kunjalo, kwindawo ethile embindini. yesakhelo "ixhonywe" i-rocket esebenza njengolwelo lwe-hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Izifundo zeAerodynamic? Amatonela omoya? Yantoni?!
Phakathi, nangeenjongo zokwazisa, wayesenexesha lokuhlazisa iFerrari F430 Scuderia, ene-510hp V8 ayinakwenza nto ngokuchasene ne... rocket bike!
