no, its just an AI car
What the heck do you mean by that? 
I will say that NASA does not require fuel cells but are highly recommended. The location of the Mustang's fuel tanks though are in a very safe location. Not sure which is safer, center mounted fuel tanks or a rear mounted fuel cell?
Anyway, beautiful car. Dean makes great equipment and there is not doubt he knows how to pilot them too. I know he kicked my *** everytime we raced together!
