Air car. Are you kidding. Do you know anything about the ICE. Lets take a small engine, say 100 cubic inches (Most are much larger) every 2 revolutions that engine uses 100 cubic inches of air, so at 2500 revolutions it uses 125,000 cubic inches of air per minute. Now this is based on the Internal combustion engine (ICE) but I'm sure you can see the problems, First, for air to move a piston with enough force to move an automobile, it would have to be extremely compressed. Second, how large of a storage container under extreme pressure would you need to move a 2500 lb car with a 100 CI engine any distance if it used 125,000 CI (cubic inches) per minute. I think this Idea may be flawed, but if you can provide more detail I may understand how it could work, but common sense says not a chance.
