Newton's 3rd law is demonstrated in the balloon racer by

• Car will stay at rest until an outside force acts on it.
• The more mass the car has the more force is needed to accelerate it.
• more air = more force which equals greater acceleration
• air pushes back out of balloon causing car to move forwar
