[00:35.75]He set up a new world record in September 1935 at Bonneville Salt Flats,Utah. [00:43.14]Bluebird,the car he was driving,had been specially built for him. [00:47.90]It was over 30 feet in length and had a 2,500-horsepower engine. [00:54.22]Although Campbell reached a speed ofover 304 miles per hour, [00:59.01]he had great difficulty in controlling the car [01:02.12]because a tyre burst during the first run [01:05.86]After his attempt, Campbell was disappointed to learn [01:09.24]that his average speed had been 299 miles per hour. [01:14.04]However,a few days later,he was told that a mistake had been made. [01:19.63]His average speed had been 301 miles per hour. [01:24.09]Since that time, racing drivers have reached speeds over 600 miles an hour. [01:30.45]Following in his father's footsteps many years later Sir Malcolm's son,Donald, [01:36.04]also set up a world record. [01:38.74]Like his father,he was driving a car called Bluebird.
