C02 Dragster
For this project we were challenged to build a CO2 Dragster with a kit including a wooden block, 4 wheels, 2 axles, 2 straws and some CO2. We had to focus on making the car aerodynamic as well as keeping the weight down. Our original design is shown in the powerpoint below. After trials and trials we realized how much the weight affected it and ended up trimming the car down a lot to decrease the time it took to get to the finish line. To see more about this challenge check out the powerpoint below.
