I was astounded when I was told that Bloodhound(?) used a Formula 1
engine to deliver the fuel.


I'd be surprised. They are not designed for a long service life. Rebuilt
after every race.


It was initially to use a Cosworth CA2010 engine now cosworth have closed
their partnership agreement. It will use a 550bhp Jaguar Supercharged V8

Of course plow**** is completely behind the times by about 15 years.
Only 5 engines per season per driver are allowed.
