More than a century later, a British-built steam super attempts to break this record at around 6AM tomorrow morning in California. The 25-ft long car is dubbed to be the fastest kettle in the world. Whether that holds true we will know soon. The Lymington-based team is very optimistic about breaking the record after trial runs exceeded 100 mph on Saturday. They hope to reach a target velocity of 170mph with their car at the Edwards Air Force Base in California. If the attempt is unsuccessful, the runs will take place until August 22. The super car weighs three tons and is made from a mixture of lightweight carbon-fiber composite and aluminum wrapped around a steel frame chassis. The car uses LPG and is fitted with 12 boilers containing nearly two miles of tubing. Demineralised water is pumped into the boilers at a rate of 50I a minute. The boilers produce three megawatts of heat.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\n<span class=\"mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress-1190801-4202256.cloudwaysapps.com\/entry_images\/0809\/20\/Steam_powered_super_car2.php\" onclick=\"window.open(&#039;https:\/\/wordpress-1190801-4202256.cloudwaysapps.com\/entry_images\/0809\/20\/Steam_powered_super_car2.php&#039;,&#039;popup&#039;,&#039;width=964,height=627,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0&#039;); return false\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow external noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress-1190801-4202256.cloudwaysapps.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Steam_powered_super_car2-thumb-450x292.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"292\" alt=\"Steam_powered_super_car2.jpg\" class=\"mt-image-center\" style=\"text-align: center; display: block; margin: 0 auto 20px;\" \/><\/a><\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress-1190801-4202256.cloudwaysapps.com\/entry_images\/0809\/20\/Steam_powered_super_car3.php\" onclick=\"window.open(&#039;https:\/\/wordpress-1190801-4202256.cloudwaysapps.com\/entry_images\/0809\/20\/Steam_powered_super_car3.php&#039;,&#039;popup&#039;,&#039;width=634,height=478,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0&#039;); return false\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow external noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress-1190801-4202256.cloudwaysapps.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Steam_powered_super_car3-thumb-450x339.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"339\" alt=\"Steam_powered_super_car3.jpg\" class=\"mt-image-center\" style=\"text-align: center; display: block; margin: 0 auto 20px;\" \/><\/a><\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress-1190801-4202256.cloudwaysapps.com\/entry_images\/0809\/20\/Steam_powered_super_car4.php\" onclick=\"window.open(&#039;https:\/\/wordpress-1190801-4202256.cloudwaysapps.com\/entry_images\/0809\/20\/Steam_powered_super_car4.php&#039;,&#039;popup&#039;,&#039;width=634,height=493,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,left=0,top=0&#039;); return false\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow external noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress-1190801-4202256.cloudwaysapps.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Steam_powered_super_car4-thumb-450x349.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"349\" alt=\"Steam_powered_super_car4.jpg\" class=\"mt-image-center\" style=\"text-align: center; display: block; margin: 0 auto 20px;\" \/><\/a><\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Steam_powered_super_car5.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/wordpress-1190801-4202256.cloudwaysapps.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/01\/Steam_powered_super_car5.jpg\" width=\"450\" height=\"905\" class=\"mt-image-center\" style=\"text-align: center; display: block; margin: 0 auto 20px;\"\/><\/span><br \/>\n<object width=\"425\" height=\"344\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/bkpdSeb2ya4&#038;rel=0&#038;color1=0x3a3a3a&#038;color2=0x999999&#038;hl=en&#038;feature=player_embedded&#038;fs=1\"><\/param><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\"><\/param><param name=\"allowScriptAccess\" value=\"always\"><\/param><\/object><br \/>\n[<a href=\"http:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sciencetech\/article-1207577\/British-steam-supercar-prepares-smash-land-speed-record.html\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"follow external noopener noreferrer\">D<\/a>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fred Marriot in a Stanley steam car currently holds the record of the fastest land-speed of 127 mph that was set in 1906 at the Daytona Beach Road Course.
