We used to build and race cars powered by CO2 capsules like those used in BB guns, wine openers, etc. Of course they were only about 1/25th scale. It would take a big capsule to power a full sized vehicle. lol, our cars also had no speed control. Once punctured, the capsule exhausted its pressure, sort of like a JATO bottle. Not too practical for the street, I guess.

We made those little cars in shop class when I was a kid. The shop teacher had a dual car launcher jig set up with a big rubber band that would puncher the the back of the Co2 cartridges where by launching a fair race.
I loved shop classes growing up!!
God bless our teachers today with today's youth they do one heck of a job. I salute teachers!
