Biodiesel Race Car Wins Historic Victory


We all know that biodiesel has what it takes to replace petroleum, now it appears that the racing world knows it too. D1 Oil, a British biodiesel firm, made history when its “Lola B2K” biodiesel powered race car won a preliminary race for the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The Lola has a monster V10 Volkswagen Touareg engine that will put the car over the 200 mph mark. This isn’t the most eco-friendly car in development, but it is sure to direct millions of dollars into biodiesel research.

The primary feedstock for the car’s fuel is jatropha curcas, a draught-resistant tree that produces an oil-rich nut. The use of jatropha over typical biodiesel source-crops is significant because of the plant’s ability to grow on marginal lands and demand little water. This is in contrast to the soy beans so often used for biodiesel in the U.S, and the canola often used in Europe—both of which can compete with food crops for arable land. D1 is developing not only the refining technology, but the cultivation sites as well, setting up farms in Asia, Africa, and the Middle East to grow jatropha. Big Oil, here we come!

Good day, sun shines!
There have were times of hardship when I didn't know about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright pessimistic person.
I have never thought that there weren't any need in big starting capital.
Now, I feel good, I started take up real income.
It gets down to select a correct companion who utilizes your funds in a right way - that is incorporate it in real deals, and shares the profit with me.

You can ask, if there are such firms? I'm obliged to answer the truth, YES, there are. Please get to know about one of them:

I'm the sort of guy who enjoys to seek unprecedented things. Right now I am manufacturing my personal photovoltaic panels. I'm managing it all by myself without the help of my staff. I am utilizing the internet as the only way to acheive that. I encountered a really amazing site which explains how to build pv panels and so on. The website explains all the steps needed for diy solar panel construction.

I am not sure about how precise the info given there iz. If some experts over here who had experience with these things can have a look and give your feedback in the page it will be great and I'd highly treasure it, cause I extremely like [URL=http://solar-panel-construction.com]solar panel construction[/URL].

Tnx for reading this. U people are the best.

Firstly, you should be well aware of your own necessities and what you exactly want to accomplish with
your website. You can also opt for contents with multiple keywords.
Furthermore, the first paragraph must contain the best sentences
