High Impact Car Race Results

What did we do?

We had 3 Races.

  • Fastest car race
  • Furthest car race
  • Car that stops closest to the green line
It's pretty simple on how they worked. Which car can go the fastest, which car can stop the furthest, and which car can stop closest to the green line. Everyone had the same car and we had a completely free choice of what materials we wanted to use to improve our vehicle and even what measurement we want our slope to be (mine was 32 degrees) so everyone had a fair choice!

The effects of my modifications

On my car, we used clay and made an aerodynamic based car by putting a sloped on the sides and placing a spoiler on the back. This made it go really fast but not quite as far. Either way, I'm still really proud of my model (car no. 5)

The results



These results are based on the furthest car. As you can see the best results is the more obvious one (car no. 7) that has reached more than 4.5 meters! The lowest one was car no.4 who has gotten way below 1.5 meters :( My car was no. 5 and i had quite a low score as i had said on the effects of my modifications.





These results are based on the fastest car. The numbers on the left are in seconds so we are looking for the shortest bar. My group had just gotten 1 second but we were beaten by car no. 6 who had gotten below 1 second!
