This is apparently being done by Andy Green's team - the same one that broke the sound barrier and still holds the title as fastest car on earth.

The car will accelerate from 0-1,050mph (1,690km/h) in just 40 seconds;

that's about 1.19G's. More design info

What the heckk kind of tire would hold together at that speed?

Now to be considered a land record, doesn't it have to have power through the wheels. I want to see the parts that can hold through that kind of abbuse.
