Vegi–Curious Motorsport

Follow-up to Vegi–Curious from nathanielho :: blog

Ben Wood puts the Warwick 2006 Formula Student car on a vegetarian diet...

• Runs on E85 - with alcohol extracted from wheat as opposed to nasty sugar cane (therefore less pesticides needed). Will be converted to run on E100.
• More BHP/tonne than a Ferrari Enzo
  
• Biodegradable body
• Biodegradable lubrication oils
• Potato tyres are surprisingly long lasting
  
• The whole car is 90% biodegradeable or recyclable
• Tree-hugging race car that MOVES.
