You Dont.
they were invented by vince napp in 1992
The speed of CO2 dragsters is primarily influenced by the design of the dragster, the amount of CO2 gas used, and the weight of the vehicle. A streamlined design reduces air resistance, allowing for faster speeds. The amount of CO2 gas affects propulsion; more gas typically results in a greater thrust. Additionally, lighter dragsters can accelerate more quickly due to reduced inertia.
they go from around 20 to 50 miles per hour the fastest one was 57
The propulsion of CO2 dragsters is primarily explained by Newton's Third Law of Motion, which states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When the pressurized CO2 gas is released from the cartridge, it pushes out in one direction, causing the dragster to move in the opposite direction. This principle allows the stored energy in the compressed gas to be converted into kinetic energy, propelling the dragster forward.
You can find materials to build CO2 dragsters at several companies: Hearlihy http://www.hearlihy.com/store/default.aspx?CategoryID=131&by=9&c=1 Pitsco http://shop.pitsco.com/store/default.aspx?CategoryID=84&by=9&c=1 Also, lots of good dragster info at Science of Speed http://www.science-of-speed.com/
Rear engine dragsters are more aerodynamic and provide better traction.

they are locked into place, directly in front of a pressurised pin. when the timed hits 0 the pin punctures the soft material at then of the canister and the rush of the pressurised CO2 gas trying to reach atmospheric pressure and to escape, propels the craft down the strip.
Co2 dragster kits can be purchased at many hobby shops. These kits will come with detailed instructions for building as well as all the parts you will need to do so. By aiming to build the lightest dragster possible, potential speed capabilities can be increased exponentially.

Some use gasoline, some use alcohol, and the top fuel dragsters burn nitro methane.
