Graphite powder is an awesome lubricant, use it in the axles tubes,(depending how the car is made), if it doesn't have axle tubes, adding them would greatly reduce frictions, basically glue in a straw that is slightly bigger than your axles then put the powdered graphite and its like a slick bearing now, just don't use anything wet, stick with dry lube..
Friction between the wheels and the surface it is moving on causes a balloon powered car to stop. As the wheels turn and the car moves, friction gradually slows down the car until it eventually comes to a stop.
Gravity affects a balloon-powered car by providing the force needed to overcome friction and air resistance, allowing the car to move forward. When the balloon is inflated and the car is released, the potential energy stored in the balloon is converted into kinetic energy as the escaping air propels the car forward.
You can make your balloon-powered car go faster by increasing the amount of air you blow into the balloon, ensuring the wheels are properly aligned and have low friction, and making the car as lightweight as possible. Additionally, consider utilizing a longer and narrower design for better aerodynamics.
Increasing pressure in the balloon will result in more air being forced out of the balloon, propelling the car forward with greater force. Conversely, decreasing pressure will reduce the force pushing the car forward. Optimal pressure will need to be determined through experimentation to achieve the best performance of the balloon-powered car.
There are five main forces acting upon a balloon powered car.The Gravitational Force (GRAVITY) - This force is pushing down on the car.The Normal/ Static Friction - This force is pushing upward, and is equal to the force of gravity. These two force react equally, and keep objects at rest.Air Resistance - This type of resistance/friction pushes against the car as it is in motion. Having a pointed tip/head (similar to a plane) helps to reduce air resistance.Kenetic Force - This is the force going in the opposite direction of Air Resistance. Kinetic energy exists in any moving object. The air being let out of the balloon is an example of this force.Rolling Friction - As the wheels roll, the dirt and raised parts of the floor cause friction beneath the wheels. This friction can slow the car down.
Friction will slow it down

If the car is lighter, Then the balloon powered car will go further.

It is a toy car built from Lego's and it is balloon powered.
No
use bigger wheels and use less friction on the ground make it weigh less
