CO2 racing is a type of competitive event where participants design and build small, lightweight vehicles powered by carbon dioxide (CO2) gas, typically using CO2 cartridges. The goal is to engineer a vehicle that can travel the farthest distance or complete a designated course in the shortest time using the propulsion provided by the gas. These races often emphasize principles of physics, engineering, and creativity, making them popular in educational settings. Participants learn about aerodynamics, mechanics, and the effects of different design choices on performance.

Co2 cars arrived as early as 1947.. Douglas / Santa Monica plant engineers made and raced some of the first co2 jet cars for a little noon hour racing. Check out.. the Popular Science magazine issue Feb 1947 ( pages 102 & 103) for photos on this race. Some of the early co2 car kits were made by Monogram models in 1947/48 as well. There first co2 powered car kit was called the Hot Shot jet car. This was an instant hit, followed by the Terra jet, Aqua jet, Mono jet, and the Mid jet co2 car kits.

Greyhound racing is similar to horse racing as it involves animals racing around a track. Both sports involve betting and require strategy and skill from the participants.
Flat racing is not a recognized form of racing
It is illegal racing.

Flat horse racing is when a horse is racing on a flat. a flat is a course without jumps. Flat horse racing is horse racing without jumps.
Banger racing is different from standard racing. Banger racing involves driving on a dirt track and using vehicles that have been constructed by the drivers.
The most commonly used international racing colors in motorsports are British Racing Green, Italian Racing Red, German Racing Silver, and French Racing Blue.

CO2 is written using the chemical formula CO2, which is a representation of one carbon atom bonded to two oxygen atoms. It is commonly referred to as carbon dioxide.
