It looks like I may have to redo the paint scheme on Bloodhound!

All the info here: https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-47650453

Apparently all the delays surrounding the Supersonic Car were financial and not about testing.
Last year they ran out of money and quietly put the project on hold.

But now, the car and the project have been sold to some rich guy who wants to make it happen as fast as possible (yes, I said that).
And now its called Bloodhound LSR (not SSC).
Bloodhound Land Speed Record

The car is red and white at the moment...but will change once a major sponsor steps in.
I cringe to think what could happen if the wrong sponsor kicks in....Huawei? Trojan? Trump Industries?

And, I am going to miss the original paint scheme which I thought was beautiful.

There are also some body changes...so more changes to my model may be necessary.
And, if you have the Corgi Bloodhound SSC model, it may become a lot more valuable?!

Things are supposed to happen later this year, so stay tuned!
