Ever wondered what it takes to build a custom motorcycle designed to smash a 400 mph land speed record?
In Episode 206 of Bru Time, Bruce sits down with Adam Fawsitt (founder) and Mark Taylor (technical director) from the Greyhound Land Speed Record Project. We dive deep into the engineering hurdles of beating a 70-year standing record, why Britain remains a powerhouse of innovation, and the sheer obsession required to take on an endeavour dominated by the US for nearly 90 years.
From computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and bespoke components to fighting for traction on dry lake beds and signing up TT legend Peter Hickman to pilot the beast, this is a masterclass in pushing boundaries and choosing more out of life.
