The Doctor first began work on the Superdrive before he is whisked away to the [[Skybase]] above [[Solos]] by the [[Timelords]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Time Monster|The]] Mutants'') | |||
The Doctor first used the super drive when he and [[Jo Grant]] needed to reach the village of [[Wootton]] from a distance of 72.9 miles before 2 o'clock, when {{Delgado}} would perform an experiment to release [[Kronos]]. The Doctor decided to activate Bessie's super drive and flung the car into outrageously high speeds. Jo insisted that it was dangerous for the Doctor to drive at the dangerous velocity he was going, but he assured her that his reactions were ten times faster than hers (though this may have been only a boast), then hit the brakes on Bessie to demonstrate how well it could absorb inertia, whereas a normal car would have sent them through the windshield. | The Doctor first used the super drive when he and [[Jo Grant]] needed to reach the village of [[Wootton]] from a distance of 72.9 miles before 2 o'clock, when {{Delgado}} would perform an experiment to release [[Kronos]].
