Well I am not against racing, but my point is if these researchers look at the racing starting from F1 down to Nascar the picture is not rosy. As you have written in your e-mail F1 team burns a lot (200.000lt per year per team). So if you add them all its more than a drop in the bucket. Let's

Hello; 22mpg diesel cost less than same amount of gasoline so you save some. BUT, May I ask why do you need a Hummer sized expedition machine? Except USA such large cars or SUV's are out of our shopping list anyway. The cost and running expenses do not justify them. I like going offroad.
