finsished car

my idea of making a brand new car got scrapped in the last lesson due to lack of time. So i worked to develop my car the best i could to produce the fastest possible time. Here is some images of my finished car and the time which my car produced on the race track. The time was 3.301secs.

wednesday

on wednesday i completed my car. i cut and soldered the wires, glued down my battery and motor and took it for a test run. however when i test ran it, it was very slow coming in at about 4seconds. i evaluated my car and i came to the conclusion that my car was just too big and heavy and im going to start from scratch and make a new one.
