just curious...

when i was at etown a couple o' weeks ago, there was a B12 sentra there with a fuel cell in it. what exactly are the advantages of a fuel cell, and why did this sentra need it if it was only running mid to low 16s??

People usually only use fuel cells in race cars.... lots of times, it's inside the car (or trunk). By doing this, there's less chance of it busting open in a crash. As for why some guy with a 16 sec. car has one.... um, *** he's a dumbass/poser?

Just a hunch! Probably to reduce weight. The gas tank itself is heavy compare to a fuel cell. Second probably just to show that he has one :p

And as far as a 16 second car having a fuel cell! Well, he probably needs all the help he can get! :D
