- New X-prizes are in the works. You might remember the X-Prize as the force behind the competition for private space travel. An encouraging quote from the X-Prize founder: “Why do we still drive cars that use an internal combustion engine and only get 30 miles per gallon? I think that we’ll see some amazing achievements in this area,” Diamandis predicted. Further details on this automotive prize are forthcoming, he added, when the prize is fully formulated.
- Two more episodes online of the podcast This New Car: #3 Hydrogen-combustion vehicles and #4 Fuel-cell vehicles.
- Kitcar USA looks interesting. Found a little information on car construction. Anyone else have links to sites on kitcars, fiberglass, and the like?
This free DVD shows lots of closeups of the chassis.
