The real trick is to knock off the beer cap at the exact moment after shaking up the beer bottle, thus releasing the pressure and shooting the car down the strip. Not for amatuers. This is why we employ a rocket scientist (Lars) to help us with the propulsion dynamics.

Never mind propulsion dynamics, what about wasting good beer? Better have a thirsty crew member in a fire, I mean rain suit and helmet, laying down behind it ready to consume and recycle the exhaust! :jester :jester :jester

Don't be conned..... The CCC are working quietly on our own car; a ground up build of a big block.

I know I am breaking the CCC code of silence (CCC COS, for you government types) but here is the proto-type mock-up....

After seeing the NJCC car, the CCC has commissioned Sledgehammer to work on the, dare I say it… NITRO version of our car. This is very dangerous stuff, and due to the inherent short half life of nitro beer the engine must be bottled and caped at the track.
Testing to date has yielded more foam than thrust, but that doesn’t stop us from trying.
