Why does alpengiest have a lead car?

I remember this question being asked when we talked with Claude at the NITRO press release. I believe, but dont quote me, that the zero car has something to do with speed and weight. Like I said, that was way back in early 2001, so its hard to remember that far.

So we should not panic but should bring a towel. Sounds like good advice to me. Thanks Dave.
