Yeah, to my knowledge just about every rocket powered digger or land speed  
record car is motorvated by hi-test peroxide.  It'd certainly be possible  to 
use a solid fuel motor, but riskier because with those, once you light the  
candle you generally can't throttle 'em or shut 'em down.

Don't they use ~90% H2O2 blown through a platinum  catalyst to power rocket 
motors used at Bonneville?
