American Le Mans Series
presented by Tequila Patrón, at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca this May 20-22 has the support of the U.S.Department of Energy and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and has emerged as the Global Leader in Green Racing.
The American Le Mans Series became engaged with the "Green Initiative" early on and for the last five years, they have added a new or advanced fuel each year. From a historical look back,
Gasoline is a relatively recent fuel choice. The early history of the automobile is all about bio fuels. The inventor of the four-stroke engine in 1876, Nicolaus Otto, ran his engines on ethanol. Rudolph Diesel ran his first single cylinder engine in 1894 on peanut oil and Henry Ford designed his Model T to run on ethanol.
Ecologically conscious developments for consumer cars in the future are the driving force in racing research. Advanced Engine Research, Mazda, BP and Castrol teaming up, used the Mazda MZR-R four-cylinder turbocharged engine developed by AER and set in Dyson Racing's Lola coupe as their development tool. |
