Crash resistance!!!?? What sort of weed do they smoke over in Deutchland? Does the phrase "Hasta la vista, baby." mean anything to you? 100 km/liter is about 62 mi/qt or 240 MPG!!! Holy gasahol, Batman! The only way to do better is to pedal a bike. They do not really show two people in this thing. As I see the seats, I am reminded of a two man bobsled. Hope they have positive ventilation, and a life-time supply of breath mints.
Well, if EVERYBODY rode around in one of these little cocoons, and there were seperate highways for trucks, busses and the like, then MAYBE this would work. And folks have been running MAG (as in magnesium) wheels for a long while. How many of those have combusted, one might wonder. And Jimbo is right as can be: once "involved" (I guess that is a Fireman's term -- Cory??) a mag fire will impress you like no other. I think they may put this stuff (shavings) in fireworks.
Big difference between magnesium alloy and just plain magnesium. As in Type 1 engine cases (mag alloy) and type 4 engine cases (aluminum alloy). If either one were pure metal, neither one would be worth a hoot. Sorta like air is an alloy; we need the oxygen to breath, but 80% of what we inhale is nitrogen, which would quickly suffocate us in pure form. Where the hell is this going . . ?
David - are you back in SoCal (San Diego) for the winter?

If you are, I'll scare up a few SOC'er to run down to your neck of the woods and have you lead us through some of the roads around Julian/Palomar or wherever! I bet even BillBecket in Carlsbad and Larry Bull would join us. Heck we might even go by and harass, oops, I mean holler 'Wassupp' to Esther and Grant if they are in town and not out traveling the RV scene!
