pretty nice, I wonder what car they maid it out of, I doubt they built it compleatly from scratch. and there right, the reason why motor companies have yet to make a real move to alternate fuel is the billions of dollers in gas there buddies in the oil companys are making.
very cool though, hope the story goes a long wase. --------------------  |

Yeah. Oil companies were bosting record profits here in the past few years. With the big increases in price, and the "shortages." Also, this is after the 9/11 thing. They're just sucking everything they can out of us. That's why Bush didn't allow Veniswala to give us any oil. We don't need it. We all should have been driven bi-desiel cars 30 years ago. Along with electric. It will hit us hard. And the rest of the world is going down with us Americans. It's really going to suck when it happens. I'd like to see a desiel go 0-60 in 4 seconds. I've seen that 8 second desiel drag car. -------------------- Live Free, Be Happy

This is a great project for these kids. The car looks like it might be some sort of kit car with a tubular frame. Look to Brazil for more technology like this. The use ethanol and bio-diesel in most of their cars and have had this for some time.
