Hydrogen-powered Cobra
Let's see... there's DV's 10-cyl, that 12-cyl Ferrari-engined Cobra on Ebay, and now this... http://www.clemson.edu/research/brooks/hydrogen/
Looks like Carroll Shelby is in on it too.
Cheers.

I wonder how much methane pressure Tom has to produce to his two carbs.

Agree -- the V10 is really sweet. I keep wondering about that pic -- is the nose lengthened?
I like this pic better, though (Tilt nose)

I thought hydrogen doesn't burn. How the hell do you burn hydrogen? Are they using H to boost another fuel?

I think that the Hindenburg was filled with hydrogen because it is cheaper to produce than helium. That was a major factor in why it burned so quickly. Hydrogen is flamable, while helium will extinguish a flame.

Joe Z....
Are you thinking of helium? (Inert, does not burn)
Hydrogen is highly flammable, it was what gave lift to the early zepplins, until several famous disasters/expolsions occured. Hydrogen is the ultimate fuel, since it exists in great quanties almost everywhere in the universe.

If it's speed they are looking for, why would they use a Cobra? Max speed is what? Upper hundreds? It's not the most aerodynamic car on the block! I wonder if thats the reason Shelby went with the Daytona & GT-40?
Catch ya later

I'm not ultimate speed is what they're looking for -- just a major improvement over existing fuels, so they probably could use most any vehicle for the testing.
