Crazy drivetrain idea

[greencactus3]

i htink the tanks we are allowed to store air in wont hold enough air to actually be useful. another motor would probably be a more efficient way to do it. to actually have a burst of torque, you'd need a lot of air. and one small jerk isnt gonna help at all except freak out your driver. but an interesting idea. a simpler (although not lightweight way) would be to have a large/heavy flywheel spinning and just keeping that stored energy till you need it when it engages a clutch and you suddenly have a lot more power.... for a bit. depending on how much rotational inertia you store.
