The new gas mileage standards mandated
by the recently passed energy legislation
defy the laws of physics...but Democrats,
including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi
don't seem to care.

Over 30 teams from the U.S., Canada, India and Bahrain participated in the
SAE's annual mileage competition June 7-8, 2007 in Marshall, Michigan. The
competition requires the development and construction of a single person,
fuel efficient vehicle. All vehicles must be powered by a small four-cycle
engine, have a minimum of three wheels, and the driver must be fully
enclosed to prevent contact with the ground. The winner is based on a
combination of best fuel economy and points from technical inspections of
the vehicles. The 2006 winner, the University of British Columbia, achieved
a record 3,145 miles per gallon!
