Chocolate-powered car takes to the race track

The WorldFirst Formula 3 racing car can do 125mph around corners, say its creators. "On Friday, we tested it around the campus car park, and we hope to get it on the track later this week," project manager James Meredith at the University of Warwick told TG Daily.

The car meets all Formula 3 racing standards except for its biodiesel engine, which is configured to run on fuel derived from waste chocolate and vegetable oil. Formula 3 cars currently cannot use biodiesel. The team hopes to enter it in some sort of race soon, though, said Meredith.
