The big problem with rockets is the huge amount of fuel (and oxidizer) that they consume. The Blue Flame was so heavy when it set off that it used to run out of fuel well before the end of the measured mile. The team eventually used a rolling start, pushing the Blue Flame with a Ford V8 to get it moving, which saved just enough fuel to set the record.
