"Hi, I'm Ron Coogan, with greencar.com, and we're going to look at how racing is going green. You know, methanol, an alternative fuel, has been used for a long time, in Indy car racing, and other racing as well. That changed in recent years, as Indy car went to ethanol, a renewable, sustainable, fuel made from grain, and biomass sources. It's an alcohol fuel. It still has the energy they need. It's high performance, and it's a much lower emission. This is a trend. Racings use of alternative energies, and energy efficiency, is a new phenomenon, and it's growing on every front. We're seeing this at Le Mans. We're seeing this with Indy Car. You're going to see it in NASCAR. You're going to see everywhere, because there's a saying, race on Sunday, sell on Monday. That's historic, and it comes from the muscle car era, when a lot of vehicles would go out.They would look like the cars that were being sold at dealerships, even though they were different internally. Those winning cars on Sunday, you could see the sales blip on a Monday, as buyers went to dealerships to buy those same cars, that were championed on the track. Well, now racing is going to champion alternative fuels, hybrid technologies, and I'm sure eventually, hydrogen technologies, because that's a reflection of the direction we're all going in. It's an important change, because it addresses energy efficiency, energy security, and sustainability, and I say bravo to racing, for taking that extra step ,and going the extra mile, all be it at speed ,to take us in that direction."
