NISMO, Nissan's performance division, unveiled the NISMO GT-R Racing Competition at the Tokyo Auto Salon. The 2011 Nissan GT-R RC (Racing Competition) has been stripped to make it lighter and fitted with a stiffer suspension system, lightweight components, a welded roll cage, air jacks and an ATL 120-liter safety fuel tank. The NISMO GT-R RC [...]

Everything about electrical vehicles and new way of utilizing new
technology is very small at the moment.

The realization that the price of oil is going up and up is creating
interest and necessity for alternative solutions.

We have been sleeping on the guard for too long so the alternatives
have only recently become a real solution.

It may/will take quite some time and most probably years to get things
started.

The sooner the prices of oil go up the sooner the alternatives come.

In Europe the trains have been increasingly popular the last 20 to 30
years and public transport in general has gotten better.

The next step is being tested in various places and in many cases it
is a combination of ordinary trains combined with other kind of
transport.

Interestingly the waterways have been making a comback as well because
they are very economical where they are possible.

Making driverless vehicles and letting them do transport has been
around for decades but usually not often mixed with other kind of
traffic because other kind of traffic is often used by incompetent
drivers.

Using technology from trains and having lines above vehicles is being
tested and works well.

Using lines above the vehicles can be set up much more quickly than
setting out train tracks so that is a real alternative already with or
without a driver involved just to replace dependency on oil.

The reason for why Europe has began this road to get off oil so long
ago is partly because they had the good fortune to tax oil and thus
pointed ordinary people in the right direction.

Because the general trend to go electric is so recent it will
unfortunately take quite a long time to make any real impact.

The big producers of vehicles have also muddied the water by insisting
on continuing using oil by producing hybrids and calling them
electrics.

By setting out lines above the roads it would be easy to get the
trucks going on the roads like trains and it would get us faster off
oil.

is your scanning tool sophisticated enough to tell you the
condition of your spark plugs and plug wires during sudden
acceleration?

if not, have you tried NEW spark plugs? theory is that increased
combustion chamber pressures during sudden opening of the
butterfly, can cause marginal plugs to misfire.

have the plug wires ever been replaced in all those miles (heat
soak cycles)?
