Fuel cell rotary molded vs bladder
I have been looking at new fuel cells and the one which will fit my car the best is a rotary molded (hard rubber) fuel safe. All the other wedge shaped cells are a softer bladder material. Both are rated the same. Is the hard rubber less safe in an incident?

For what it is worth: CVAR down here in Texas specifies bladder type fuel cells. I am currently going through
A Lola equipped with a rotomold tank and intend to take it to the next race to get a specific yes or no from the tech inspectors. I will post the result.

Well, the CVAR tech guys said the rotomold tank was just fine. Make sure foasm is fresh. and enclose the tank in an aluminium container.
