Coffee powered car makes attempt at speed record

Coffee powered car makes attempt at speed record

You know how drinking coffee is supposed to give you a temporary jolt so that you need not feel all that lethargic. Well, I suppose that works for humans, but what about cars. There is this particular jalopy which was specially modified to run on nothing but coffee grounds – and it was recently involved in an attempt to break the speed record for vehicles which run on gas from organic waste. Engineer Martin Bacon from County Durham actually tinkered around with this particular vehicle using a gasifier that will burn organic material at high temperature.
