Compressed air cars would be good for my business but I do not think it will happen. Too many obstacles and the range is too short. I know there are some pretty sharp minds working on it but still I am not holding my breath on it. I have been contacted about supplying compressors for that purpose but when you look at actual air needs and pressure then most realize it will not work as well as they hoped. Also there is a bunch of difference between a 125 PSI shop air compressor and a 4500 or 6000 PSI compressor.
