    wjtracy, to you mean CO2or O2? I doubt that anyone would actually use O2 and I would be pleased to observe that experiment from a great distance.

    Yeah not sure how safe that'd be but maybe 50/50 O2/N2 or maybe something like a balloon to show the effect.

    More oxygen makes everything more flammable. Like tires. More pressure means more oxygen molecules. You have , what, 2 or 3x atmospheric pressure inside those rubber things? Then you will drive them down the road and heat them up?

    I certainly don't know for sure that this will get exciting, but again I intend to be somewhere else.

    Apollo 1, dammit.

    I was not suggesting driving on it...I think CR just let the test tires sit around for year
