Ummm.. Hi ITI. Glad to see you've adjusted to those Oklahomans so quickly. (when I lived there it took about 3 months, but I was up in Tulsa....)

I have one question: With the reduced gravity and friction on Mars, and the limited atmosphere, how fast would I be able to drive my Dodge Shadow that weighs 2100lbs and can accelerate to 115Mph on earth? (we are omitting that there is no oxygen on Mars, but the car will still run anyways. )

Well, SH lets see,

I think you would be floating with reduced atmosphere,,,so you would go straight up and have, forgive the pun, SPINNING WHEELS WHILE FLOATING...

Is that the right answer?

Umm... No. There is reduced gravity on Mars, not zero Gravity in space, so there is still enough to hold the car on the surface...

about 10 times faster, if you only account for drag. this is assuming the density of Mars' atmosphere is 1/10 that of Earth's. (Which is roughly correct, but it varies throughout the day, and the time of year.)

Well, now you sit there, and think how cool it would be to drive a 4 wheeled vehicle at 1150 MPH and think that it'd only take you 10 minutes to get from OKC to Dallas.
