Synopsis
Following the success of last year's campaign, in which we made a man fly on the power of AA Oxyride batteries alone, we developed a racing car that runs on Oxyride batteries and accomplished a Guinness World Record of 105.9km/h, certified as "the fastest car running on dry battery". Ordinary AA batteries drive toy cars; Oxyride is so powerful it can even drive a racing car.
