I don't know if any of you watch top gear. Here is a clip from an episode where they pay darts with cars. Fired with 1400 psi of nitrogen.

cars are just the start. This has a lot of potential.

I suggest using Liberals. You know where to insert the gas pipe.

Do you ever get tied of thinking your better than others?

I don't think that I am better than anyone, except Liberals. Why Hoagie? What's your problem? Kind of defensive aren't we?

I would get rid of the Nitrogen and use Hydrogen.  Now that would be bad a**!  :-)

I would think that would have a bit more of a kick to it.

According to the universal gas law, it would make little difference as long as the pressure was the same.

I guess I was thinking along the lines of it being a bit more unstable, and the possibility ignition.

A flaming dart? Now that would be cool to see..... from a distance. LOL :-)

Flamable gas+air/oxygen could generate tremendous power. That would need to be done carefully unless You want to be mentioned in the Darwin Awards.
