I went to the BB2 website and found -- that the site is busy talking about the succes they're hoping to have in 2007.  So - go ahead and look around, maybe find a way to ask a question about whether anything new is going on -- but take whatever you get with a big caveat emptor.  http://www.buckeyebullet.com/

I just got this update from my LSR and ALSR friend thats is very technical and has deep knowledge in design and engineering in the LRS field. I appreciate his response on my question

(Update)
In 2007, they were having problems with leaks in the hydrogen lines feeding the fuel cells. In 2008, they were having problems with leaks within the fuel cells themselves. Their motor has dyno tested at over 700 horsepower. If they can ever get their problems with hydrogen leaks solved, it will be a 300+ mph car. They have made a one-way pass of over 280 mph. The car is front-wheel drive with the motor located forward of the front
