			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Alternative energy vehicles</p>
<p>OK, I lied before, this here is definitely the best green energy solution! Who needs to pay for the high price of gas when you have HAY? This  gives true meaning to horse power, even though this is not technically a horse, it is still a a four legged beast pulling&#8230; not a cart, but a jeep. Ingenious! Think about it, you get all the luxury of a auto interior without having to worry about gas prices. Now you may have a few new worries such as the price of hay and this may put new meaning into such car issues as &#8220;a stubborn transmission&#8221; and &#8220;engine failure&#8221;.</p>

<p>The good news is that with this ride, you literally can coax your engine back to health!</p>

<p>Here&#8217;s a <a title="cool cars" href="http://damp-dry.com/tag/cool-cars/">really cool</a> car even though the concept sounds a bit far fetched but seems a professor in Japan has created a car that runs on water, talk about cheap, easy attainable fuel.</p>
<p>The company responsible for the car is called Genepax. The <a title="hi tech car" href="http://damp-dry.com/tag/hi-tech/">hi tech</a> car works by extracting the hydrogen from the water that is poured into the cars tank. Electrons are then somehow released producing electricity to power the motor.</p>
<p>The company does have plans for this <a title="concept car" href="http://damp-dry.com/category/concept-cars/">concept car</a> with plans to mass produce the water car.</p>
<blockquote>
<h1>Water-fuel car unveiled in Japan</h1>
<div>(01:21) Report</div>
<p>Jun. 13 &#8211; Japanese company Genepax presents its <a title="eco friendly car" href="http://damp-dry.com/tag/green/">eco-friendly car</a> that runs on nothing but water.</p>
<p>The car has an energy generator that extracts hydrogen from water that is poured into the car&#8217;s tank. The generator then releases electrons that produce electric power to run the car. Genepax, the company that invented the technology, aims to collaborate with Japanese manufacturers to mass produce it.</p></blockquote>

<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://damp-dry.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/jet-car.jpg" title="jet car"><img src="http://damp-dry.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/jet-car.jpg" alt="jet car" width="410" height="273" /></a></p>
<p>Ed Shadle and Keith Zanghi wanted to break the 800 mph land speed record in the US. So how do you do that&#8230; ummm, maybe with a rocket car,</p>
<p>This <a href="http://damp-dry.com/2009/sick-toys/the-budweiser-rocket-car-of-1979/" title="rocket car">rocket car</a> is called the North American Eagle and is actually  powered by a 1957 Lockheed F-104 Starfighter&#8217;s 42,500 horsepower engine.</p>
<p>The jetcar is not a cheap one to drive. Using 160 gallons of gas a minute, a few minute run can will force you to put your kids, wife and pets to work just to pay your monthly gas bills.</p>
<p>Looks like a cool toy for anyone who can afford it and may have a death wish.</p>
<p align="left">The pair above may have some competition for that land speed record from the Aussie Invader Rocket car. The Aussie invader rocket car is not small. The jet car is 55 feet in length and has a 10 ft. height tailfin&#8230;. definitely wouldn&#8217;t fit in my garage.</p>

<p align="left">From their site <font><a href="http://www.aussieinvader.com/"><font size="2" face="Verdana">AUSSIE       INVADER . COM</font></a></font></p>
<blockquote><p><font size="2" face="Verdana">After seeing X-Prize winner SpaceShipOne, McGlashan, &#8220;The fastest       Aussie on Earth,&#8221; wondered if rocket motors could propel him up to       speeds of 1,609 km/h. So he called up SpaceDev, the company who provided       the rocket motor technology for the world&#8217;s first</font><br />
<font size="2" face="Verdana">       private-sector astronaut mission. He also enlisted the help of John &#8220;Ackers&#8221;       Ackroyd, the designer of 1983&#8217;s land-speed-record-breaking car Thrust 2.       They came up a wingless rocket-powered jet fighter on wheels.       </font></p></blockquote>
<p>OK, not all of us can either afford a jet car nor risk our lives for a few minutes of ultimate speed. Here a a few alternatives&#8230;</p>
<p>Strap the rocket to a cheap car and save millions on engineering and manufacturing.</p>

<p align="left">and there is the Baron Margo <a href="http://damp-dry.com/2009/sick-toys/the-budweiser-rocket-car-of-1979/" title="rocket cars">rocket car</a> which is a motorcycle car that happens to look like a rocket to give you that ultra cool feeling.</p>

<p align="left">I guess this one may have been a bit disappointing, but a goot try none the less.</p>
<p align="left">The Budweiser rocket car was built in 1979 and they planned to breakland speed records with a rocket car that could exceed the speed of sound. The Budweiser rocket car was supposed to be the very first land vehicle to break the sound barrier.</p>
<p align="left">Stan Barrett drove the jet car on Dec. 17, 1979 and the rest is wrapped in controversy.  It seems no one knows if the vehicle broke the sound barrier or not. I must wonder where the speedometer was here, but the rumor is that no sonic boom was heard pointing to maybe, the sound barrier was not broken.</p>
