I believe that this development might enhance the potential of eco-cars. So far, it seems like the "clunky" eco-cars have been dominating the market, so I am glad that they are finally moving into the higher MPG, more efficient, more attractive look, as it might chance people's minds about green cars, which in turn will help our environment. I thin, that it is a fantastic idea that they get ideas from space technology; after all, things are much more fragile and dangerous in space. If the materials can withstand a vacuum, they can withstand driving without drastic failures.
From the green fuel to the added heat shields, this race car is green and safe. It's interesting how they used ideas from technology used in space travel to make a greener car. Using some of the safety precautions that they use in space travel is very creative. If it can survive in outer space, it can most likely survive on a race track for sure.
Personally, I like the chocolate running car better, because it uses not only something that we shouldn't eat too often, and even animal fats. A lot of people watch racing, and getting awareness for eco-friendly (ness) is really interesting. I liked the article mostly because of that, they are getting awareness for saving the earth through a race car. I liked that a lot.
This article was very cool and informative. I thought it was amazing that the car was lubricated with sunflower oil. I thought that this is a great idea but it might be more expensive than a regular car that is made today.
first they make in eviromentally sound car the hybrid advance that to a race car and then we find out that the racing car breaks the record this crazy i mean we have had a pollution problem for so many it helps that it will protect in car accidents and so on with great aspects the only problem is the car is going to cost more than people can afford ok we look at this the hybrid is about give or take 30,000 dollares sure obama takes off 10,000 the company should reduce the price even from that for there number of shares and buyers will exceed the worth of the products in total but first we all have to get rid of are cars for the discount from the goverment
I think it is great how they are going farther with the pollution with cars. Even with race cars. I thought it was being explained really well. In general I love seeing progress.
I chose this article because this paves the way for a clean(er) Earth in the future. Because it's green, it was surprising to me that it is the world's fastest car. I hope they use this car in car races, because then (even though they are extremely boring) they wont be so wasteful :)! And, if they're on the streets, not only will the world waste less, but there will be less deaths; they're fire-proof, so that way nobody will burn inside the car. Now, with this car, we could have the chocolate from the last green car for ourselves. Mwaa ha ha ha.
I like that this car is an eco-car and it is safe... basically what howard and brandon said but, I liked the article and i thought that it would be really awesome to drive that car around a race track!
This really interesting I think that it is cool that an eco-friendly car can go at such high speeds. Also the fuel that they use is strange, but apparently it works well. I have never heard of any car running on liquified petroleum gas. I have never even heard of that! I enjoyed this article, but I wish there was more information.
