bio-fuel question concerning thrust ssc
i know kerosene (jet fuel) and diesel have very similar characteristics and i know that there is no real difference in power output between biodiesel and normal diesel so what modifications would have had to be done to make thrust SSC run on bio-fuels?

Can I be first to nominate them for the Darwin Awards ?
 IMHO nice paint job, reasonable website, not quite enough time spent on the engineering design.   It is not for nothing that the F-104 Starfighter got it's nickname of Widow Maker .I wish anyone involved good luck. Duncan

.... and I've just been reminded, the early versions of the F-104 used a downwards ejection seat.
