CruxGNZ Posted September 16, 2002 Share Posted September 16, 2002 I was listening to Paul Harvey's news and comment today and he says that there was a dragster that went 211mph in the quarter mile powered only by... 'drum roll'... SOY BEAN OIL! I'm realy going to have to check this out. On a side note, those of you who haven't listened to Paul Harvey yet, give him a listen, you'll be pleasantly supprised. You will find him on your local AM radio station. Been listening to him for years, he always gives you something to talk about with your friends. "good-day." !M!

Guest greimann Posted September 17, 2002 Share Posted September 17, 2002 That sounds like it was running biodiesel (no relation to Vin). A new generation of diesel fuel that is derived from plant materials, like soy beans. We have the technology and the farmland in the U.S. to produce renewable fuels like alcohol and biodiesel, that hopefully, someone, somewhere is looking into the future to realize that this is going to be our only long term hope for fuel. That is of course, unless Mr. Fusion becomes a reality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
