First Place
 
Well, my CO2 car that I built for a race for science class came in first place school-wide. It raced down a 102 ft. straight track, guided by a fishing line. My time was 0.62 seconds. The closest other time was 0.88 seconds. I would have pics but the camera battery crapped out. I'll get pics up as soon as possible.

Ha! I used to make these cars, man memories... (and it makes me realize how old I am).

Would love to see some pics...

Here's some pics of the car, if you have any questions, please ask! Without the CO2 cartridge, the car weighs 47 grams.

brings back memories of when I was in jr high I was in a model rocketry class, and an assignment we had was to design and build a rocket and everybody but me was more concerned about the looks I was more concerned about performance my design was pretty much just enough body to wrap around an Estes "D" engine with some basic fins and no parachute. I had it painted flat camo...the teacher loved it how it was so basic. When we launched our rockets you didnt see much of mine it was gone in a flash and never seen again...lol

Wow. As you can see, I didn't go for much looks either.
