That's the main problem with fuel cells these days - the best you can store is 5kg or so of hydrogen, which takes big heavy pressure tanks and lets your car go about 100km before filling up. [edit: that's 100km for a *fuel cell* car. Yer hydrogen burner would probably get 20km at most per tank... d'oh!] Batteries are definitely the way to go. As for the 'more boost' thing - basically in an electric car you have three options: 1) More voltage ( = a higher redline) 2) Higher current ( = more torque) 3) Series/parallel switching. Wayland's car does has a series/parallel switch and a bypass that connects the motors directly to the battery, and apparently if he's not careful he gets wheelspin when he hits the button - at over 70MPH! He calls it 'the afterburner'. I want one! [Updated on: Thu, 23 September 2004 12:34] [Report message to a moderator]
