Diesel ability is the hot ticket at Le Mans right now after the dominant win by Audi’s R10 that year and Peugeot coming next year. But technology always moves on in racing (unless you’re talking Nascar, but that’s a whole other story). By the middle of the next decade, racers will likely have moved on to something else, and Acura is playing off of parent Honda’s fuel cell efforts by showing drawings of a potential fuel cell powered Le Mans racer. It’s unlikely a racer will look much like any of these drawings, but some of the technology could build it to the track. increasingly drawings and a press release after the jump.

The Acura NHR-1 (Nano Hydrogen Racer 1) is a experiment bed for new fabric development and clean energy.
By utilizing molecular nanotechnology, compact fuel cell can be made possible thereby making vehicle packaging efficient. New strong, light weight materials can derive from various sources and be 100% recyclable. The hydrogen fuel cell ability plant in that application tests its performance in the most grueling endurance race in the world. It’s a notion of Acura’s commitment to cleaner environment.
