I've just come across more cool EcoGeeky videos than I can handle all at once, so here's a roundup, which I've never done before, but maybe will do more in the future.
 
Starting out with something that could only happen in an American cookie-cutter suburb: A remarkably powerful go-kart built by a middle-aged man with NO BRAKES. Not clever.  Also, turn your speakers down because it makes some horrible noises when he starts peeling out.
 
 
 
Amazing light-weight three-wheeled car with a power-to-weight ratio rivaling a Ferrari, it's the Peugeot 20 Cup.
 
 
 
Check out CNN.com for a cute little report on vampire power at Christmas time. 
 
And these Japanese people seem to be doing something pretty amazing, I'm just not sure what. They're definitely pouring water into a car...and then the car goes. I've sent out some messages to Japanese speaking friends and am awaiting translations.

A remarkably powerful go-kart built by a middle-aged man with NO BRAKES - Ace like it but what a muppet.

Amazing light-weight three-wheeled car with a power-to-weight ratio rivaling a Ferrari, it's the Peugeot 20 Cup. - got to admit where can I get mine.
