Pitsco's CO 2 Dragsters activity involves the designing, prototyping, producing, and testing of a CO 2 dragster made from a small block of wood. The dragster is powered by a CO 2 cartridge, which when punctured by an electronic launch module, propels the dragster down a 20-meter track in . . .

Pitsco’s Custom Cruiser activity involves the designing and racing of a CO 2 -powered custom cruiser. From a small block of wood, the dragsters are modeled after a specific vehicle and powered by a CO 2 cartridge. Attention to the details of the cruiser design earns more points than the . . .

The use of technology to produce prototypes and products is all around us. In this competition, students use CAD and CAM software and hardware to produce a CO 2 dragster that will travel down a 20-meter track in the least amount of time.

Extraordinary acceleration! Dragsters are known for their power and speed, and these model dragsters are no different! Students design and engineer their own dragster from a wood blank with hopes that the vehicle will travel down a 20-meter track as quickly as possible!
