Porsche 928 with Jet Engine!

Run Your Car on Wood? No Joke.
2008-05-16 07:19:00 I?ve heard of making fuel from wood before, but rarely does using wood as fuel come up. However, just today I was pointed to this site, hosted by a local radio station, with a real-life example of someone burning wood as a fuel in his truck. I can?t say for sure how the system works, whether it?s dual fuel or the wood-burning supplies all the fuel the engine needs, but it doesn?t appear to be a hoax and is certainly interesting. Evidently, during WWII, there was some experimenting with alternative fuels (due to shortages caused by the war), and one of the results was the wood burning automobile.

Teens And Cars - Advanced Driver Training And Car Insurance
2008-05-13 00:40:00 In a span of just five years, the number of people killed by teenage drivers amounts to 35,000. Teens aged 16 and 17 are mostly responsible for this alarming rate primarily because of their psychological development, as studies have proven.

Car insurance for Rental Cars
2008-05-11 04:47:00 If you are renting a car, you will need car insurance and if possible, the cheapest car insurance. If you already have insurance on your private car and it includes collision, then this may be adequate cover to rent a car. You might not be aware but a car insurance review might be just the thing you needed to make an informed decision. Before renting a car, you will need to find out exactly how much coverage you have within your own policy. In most cases, your coverage and the deductibles that you have on your car insurance policy will be enough for a rental car. This is only if you use the car for pleasure and not for business. If you're not comprehensively covered (or not covered for collision), then you won't be covered in if your rental is stolen or involved in an accident. Individuals who don't have any private car insurance at all have two further options. They can either buy coverage for the rental car at the counter or buy a non-owner insurance policy. If all that seems ...

Palm Bay Police Chief bans patrol cars from idling
2008-05-10 23:59:00 High fuel prices have surely altered most consumer's driving habits. The gas crunch has gotten bad enough that even police units have found it necessary to change their routines. For instance, in Palm Bay, Florida, Police Chief William Berger has banned officers from allowing their patrol cars to idle. The only circumstances where idling a police vehicle is permissible is when an animal or prisoner is left inside the vehicle. Turning off the vehicle sometimes requires on-board computers to be rebooted and, of course, raises the internal temperature of the vehicle since the air conditioner is no longer running. Other agencies have been forced to park their motorcycle units, which could potentially lead to a lower level of service from the police force. According to spokesman Lt. Andrew Walters of the Brevard County Sheriff's Office, "Our motorcycle unit... will stay intact. It's an integral part of our service, as the No. 1 complaint to the sheriff's office is traffic-related." O...
