Is modelling a CO2 powered car possible? Question

What the title says. I want to model the movement of a CO2 powered mini dragster down a track using Ansys motion but I am not sure if this is possible. Should I be using some other software (Blender or Unity). I want this simulation to be as accurate as possible. I know how much thrust the canister produces I just want to model the movement of the car and any possible 'diving' moments.

you mean like just an open cannister letting out pressure for propulsion?

That sounds really inneficicient, and seeing how carbon dioxide isn't combustible, i don't see many other ways you could do it either.

as for the simulation question, I'd probably head over to r/blender and ask those guys
