You can use a high powered lubrication such as butta
golf ball it by using a drill, you drill little holes on it.
Golf-ball the surface of the car. If you drill shallow holes on the car (like a golf ball's) it helps let air move around it.
The required size to race a CO2 car is is at least five feet eight inches tall and at least one hundred and forty pounds. Those are the minimum race car requirements.

the co2
Carbon dioxide (CO2).
Petrol cars produce CO2 as a combustion by-product, so it might be said that whatever the fastest car in the world is the fastest CO2 car. There are no cars powered by CO2 - obviously - as any chemical reaction starting with CO2 needs energy to produce another substance. There might be a car somewhere powered by compressed CO2, but this will stop moving when it runs out of pressure. Consequently the fastest CO2 car is a parked car.
Aerodynamics of the car, the size of the wheels, the weight of the car, and the size of the CO2 cartridge.
friction, drag, and propulsion force
Doesn't the driver ( and any passengers ) in the car emit CO2 as well, so you are not comparing like with like.You must compare CO2 from Car, driver and passengers with CO2 emitted by cyclist to be more accurate.You will need to divide the CO2 for car driver and passenger by number of occupants of car to get CO2 per person per journey
