Hydrogen Powered IRL Racecar Concept
I’m not sure what the purpose behind this was, other than to maybe “Just Do It” but it’s pretty cool.
The Honda IRL race car rests atop a hydrogen-powered “skate,” and its sleek curves and airways reduce drag and help keep everything cool. Arrowhead-shaped stones were the inspiration for its aggressive shape, though it still features the same open-wheeled design that’s been made classic in the Indy Racing League.

Water4Gas: Car Runs On Water
Genpax Co Ltd has created a new fuel cell system that uses water as fuel and doesn’t emit CO2. The system is designed to power current electric cars and eliminates the need for high pressure Hydrogen tanks and Hydrogen reformers. I guess there was some truth to the whole Water4Gas scam after all {evil grin}.
Though the company did not reveal the details, it “succeeded in adopting a well-known process to produce hydrogen from water to the MEA,” said Hirasawa Kiyoshi, the company’s president. This process is allegedly similar to the mechanism that produces hydrogen by a reaction of metal hydride and water. But compared with the existing method, the new process is expected to produce hydrogen from water for longer time, the company said.
