Car building compo

Postby NeXFerret » Sun Aug 12, 2007 10:13 am

Build a car that resembles a real car and is capable of completing the course supplied faster than my vehicle without breaking and without dropping the Armadillo. 45.23 seconds is the time to beat. The first cloth barrier is the finish line. Use the instant it breaks as the time your vehicle takes. Any breakages that occur after the cloth is broken do not count. There are no limitations on suspension and propulsion systems, although flying machines, intentional or not, are not really valid. Good luck!

Well here is my submission :) my first post and first upload.

It completes the track in just under 39 secs and nothing breaks, not even when he hits the bumper at the end. I brought the 3 'dillo's to the finish as well.

In an ideal world, where anything and everything is in perfect form, is there a perfect form of imperfection?

Work THAT one out! :)

bump when does this "contest" end?
May the lag be with you in the dark hours of battle.

What came first? The ball, or the 'dillo?
