Now THIS is HOT Chocolate!

Freud asked "What do when want?"
He totally missed the answer.....the answer is CHOCOLATE!

What do fast women want?
A race car that runs on chocolate!

From the UK comes a car that, yes, RUNS on chocolate.
World First Racing has developed a Formula 3 race car that is made largely from recycled products, or in most cases...vegetables!
World First says the car is 95 percent biodegradble. Guess there is no need to clean up after a crash....just bury the remnants and it decomposes.

The steering wheel is composed of carrot fibers.
The body panels are made from the starch of potaotes.
The seat is composed of flax fiber shell, with soybean oil foam and recycled polyester fabric.
The side pods are made from recycled bottles.
Even the carbon fiber sections of the car are made from recycled carbon fiber.
Lubricants are plant based.

Lest you think this ride can't cut loose, it is outfitted with a BMW turbodiesel engine that can hit 150MPH.
The engine can run on on just about any biodiesel, but word is that the engineers chose chocolate.

I can just see the races now.....everyone will want to be drafting behind this car.
Talk about a sweet smelling exhaust.

Check out World First Racing's site for an interactive layout and more pictures of the car.
They'll also have video soon.
