The toy car can't be powered by a remote controller... it's got to move by itself.

Ghosts. It's nevery very predictable and can't be controlled, but it works.

Roll it down a ramp.

Set up some kind of rubber-band powered propulsion system on the axle.

Wind.

Push it. If you can't do so with your hand, set up a swinging hammer or similar impact system.

I think if you use a string wrapped around the axle and attach it to a weight suspended on a tripod that's attached to the car it will move on its own when the weight is released... you will have to count the revolutions of the axle and times it by the circumference of your wheels to insure it will travel 1 meter... too large of wheels and it may not move too small and it may not reach 1 meter... in any case you will have to make it yourself, good luck

Well, the obvious one to me would be to drop it, but I don't think that's what your looking for.

Rubber band somehow wound up on one of the axels?
What initiates the movement? Does the car have to do it alone? If so, there needs to be some timer (or logical device).
