The Buckeye Bullet reached 314.958 mph. The 314 mph qualifies as a new US record in one direction. I love the stuff that we do at our Universities...Michigan building solar cars that travel across the country on solar and Ohio State building 314 mph electric car. I just want to plug American Innovation. Please make some comments.

I was going to say "did it fall off a cliff or something?" Heh. Universities do some amazing things. We need to improve education in this country so that more of our kids can excel at the university level.
314mph electric... awesome.

So why does the government fund fuel-cell research, and not this stuff?

Have you seen this car:

The Phoenix electric pickup truck - using new, advanced Altairnano batteries (based on research from MIT) - can:
-Travel up to 250 miles per charge
-Carry 5 passengers plus cargo at 95mph.
-Charges batteries in as little as TEN MINUTES.
-Has batteries that last 250,000 miles (never need replacement.)

Yes, this car is for sale, right now. Thank heaven for universities. This car never would have come out of government or auto industry research.

Our uni fitted wings and a propeller to a car and made it fly. But we're not in america, we're in GB, home of Brunel amongst others.
