(11/1/2013)Hal Needham was the man behind "Budweiser Rocket", driven by his stunt driver friend Stan Barrett, in December, 1979. Hal claims that they were the first to break the sound-barrier. The US Air Force confirmed that the three-wheel hybrid-car reached a speed of 1190.4 km/h. The car even had Sidewinders without the warheads, and could accelerate from 0 to 800 km/h. in just 10 seconds. Anyway, Needham had his wishes realized. They become a part of history.
