The Budweiser Rocket Car of 1979

I guess this one may have been a bit disappointing, but a goot try none the less.

The Budweiser rocket car was built in 1979 and they planned to breakland speed records with a rocket car that could exceed the speed of sound. The Budweiser rocket car was supposed to be the very first land vehicle to break the sound barrier.

Stan Barrett drove the jet car on Dec. 17, 1979 and the rest is wrapped in controversy.  It seems no one knows if the vehicle broke the sound barrier or not. I must wonder where the speedometer was here, but the rumor is that no sonic boom was heard pointing to maybe, the sound barrier was not broken.
