[Land-speed] Jesse James brings hydrogen land-speed record back to America: AutoWeek Magazine

[dan warner]

Why couldn't the Jesse james car run an SCTA/BNI/USFRA event? It meets current
safety regs and section 2.B of the 2009 rulebook piuts the car in a fuel
class.

And Rick Byrnes went 207 with the Ford electric car using hydrogen to 
create the electricity.  Ohio State has gone over 270 with their 
streamliner using the same Ballard technology as Ford did.  Oh yes ... 
they were timed at the Bonneville Salt Flats.  Would any of the 
sponsoring organizations allow Jesse's liner to run at their event?  I 
seriously doubt it.  SCTA even required the setup that created the 
hydrogen for the Ford attempt to stay away from the extreme end of the 
pits by a thousand feet.
