On my conscious I believe and could have more motivation for my
endurance racing if I could find a clean renewable fuel to run in the
Mazda RX-7 race car.

I have considered Hydrogen, I have considered High Pressure injection of
Bio Diesel, I have Considered ethanol.

Is it possible with very little modification to the engine/fuel system
to combine a mix of Ethanol and Bio-Diesel to obtain a simulated octane
rating and BTU rating of 87 octane unleaded gas?   Trying not to go to
direct injection on the Rotary.

I have proposed SCCA look into alternate energy racing about a year ago.
Not sure where that is at in the rules making process.

I do not care about points, all I care about is showcasing a clean
renewable fuel.

In a holding pattern with racing until renewable fuel for Endurance
Racing can be show cased.
   Have 2 RX-7 Race Cars collecting dust waiting for innovation, and
showcasing Renewable.

Have you thought about a mix of ethanol and butanol?  Butanol is very close
to gasoline but it has a higher gel temperature--the ethanol should fix
that.  I don't know why nobody talks about using this longer chain alcohol
for fuel.
