Our car on race day did reasonably well according to how we though it was going to go. We got 5th place in the distance with a distance of 10 meters and 6th place in the drag with a time of 5.75 seconds. If we would have had the chance to work with out car after I would have made sure the chassis was straight and the string held on to the axle consistently. The back left wheel also needed straightening as it was pretty wobbly. If I could build a whole new car I would make it out of lighter material and make a better attachment for the string to the axle, as it slipped a lot. On our old car the rear wheels really needed to mounted level so it went straight and true.
