 Obviously you need a little Research yuorself. There are Hydrogen
 Peroxide powered rockets. NO OTHER FUEL REQUIRED. In fact soem years
 back at soem Drag Races some FOOL used to demo one attached to a Go
 CArt Chassis.
And one company built one to replace the Read Differential Cover for a
short boost of power in the Drags. Had soem problems with breaking axles
but it wroked. Gave a boost something like Nitrious Oxide gas used
nowdays.
The basic principle was that upon passing through a Catalist Screen the
Hydrogen Peroxide used would explosively expand and produce
thrust as it was directed through a nozzle.
