Wasn`t a good advertisement for the crash proof fuel cell. After losing his
Dad, this is almost sure to spook the kid. Too bad, I think he`s a lot
nicer guy than his Dad was. I hope he continues to do well in Nascar.

Fuel cell held together 100% - the crash broke off the filler neck & just
burnt the fuel in that. Does go to show how much fuel was in the neck
though - being early practise, perhaps it was filled to the limit, to see
how it would go, for long runs.
Also shows, you don`t know what his dad was like (off the track).

No, I don`t know what his Dad was like off the track. I can only go by what
I saw.
Glad to hear the fuel cell held up. Surprising that there was so much fuel
splashing around as he came off the wall to the tires.
In any event, glad he`s o.k.

Last "Cars" Post on Wordpress: Title: Futuristic Japanese Cars (2007 Motor Show) Date: Sat, 26 Sep 2009 12:12:14 +0000 Author: shayannie
At the Tokyo Motor Show last october 2007, they presented cool designs, high tech car parts, and bizarre concept cars .

One of the cars presented here is the Nissan’s “Pivo 2″ that is an electric car with a revolving cabin that can park the car sideways. Nissan “Pivo 2″ has a robotic agent that can read facial expressions. And what’s amazing hear is they can calm down the driver if they were feeling upset.

Another car presented here is Honda’s “Puyo.” It is a car covered with soft silicone to avoid harming the driver or pedestrians during a crash.

A new prototype for a new van was unveiled by Nissan which is called “NV-200.” On the other hand, Suzuki showed the electric “sharing coach” which contains two individual “Pixy” transportation units. More on: http://shayannie.wordpress.com/2009/09/26/futuristic-japanese-cars-2007-motor-show/
