"Maybe you could get sponsorship from Viagra and run a bumper sticker that says "Got Wood?""

And if it continued to run after 4 hours you'd have to get salt peter for it.  See Intrepid Mining.

As reported in Wikipedia from Mother Earth News:

On Sept 14th 2011 at the Bonneville Salt Flats a truck modified with a wood gas powered engine set a new world speed record for vehicles powered by wood gas with a speed of 73 mph

What class and event was he running? So, something to shoot for, wooden wheels and all! :)
