Question: what would you call the car?

Hi Trav,
We have called the car ‘BLOODHOUND SSC’ – the SSC bit stands for Super Sonic Car. It was first called Bloodhound because the chief of aerodynamics, a man called Ron Ayers, worked on the Bloodhound missile, and this was a nickname given to the car when the project was still top secret – it just kind of stuck!
