CASTLE Precision Engineering has outlined further details of its involvement in a project to build a vehicle to raise the land speed record to 1000mph.
The Glasgow firm is building the wheels for the Bloodhound SuperSonic Car project and has now said it is manufacturing 18 solid aluminium wheels at the company's premises in Castlemilk.
Each wheel will have to spin 177 times per second if the target speed is to be achieved.
