If the car collided with another that did catch fire, then the air tanks would, after a while, go off like hand grenades. Another interesting possibility is getting a lightweight frame, powerful DC motor, batteries (Li-ion if possible), and have a lawn mower engine to keep charging the batteries whilst waiting at traffic lights etc. and doing the shopping: http://www.robinhoodsportscars.com/contents_lightweight.php This group is a bit slow at the moment, but can be useful http://autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/diy_ev_cars/ I reckon the frame above, with good batteries, culd be made to touch 100mph with a fair amount of luck.
