Bluebird electric land speed record attempt ends in disaster — Autoblog Green: "An attempt to smash the UK's electric vehicle land speed record on Saturday reportedly ended in disaster as the Bluebird was badly damaged following an impact with a pothole. Foul weather limited visibility and, according to reports, a pothole, led to the near-catastrophic incident.
Piloted by Joseph Wales, the electric Bluebird set out to break the UK's existing 137-miles-per-hour electric vehicle speed record set back in 2000, but Mother Nature put Wales' skills to the test. The first leg of the Bluebird's trial run at Pendine Sands in Wales went as planned, but the return leg didn't."
