Just this year, our grade 9 technology class was assigned a project in which we were to build a wooden race-car, which would be equipped with a carbon dioxide canister and would race alone a 65 foot stretch. The car was to be built with the following in mind: aerodynamics, friction, weight and balance, with an envelope of requirements.
After the race, I lost however. Probably last place in all the tech. classes in the school, I won an award for the most aesthetically pleasing look.
Also, my car weighed on average 3x as much as any other car.
Oh yeah... did I mention I lost? _________________ girls like shining |

When i did technology our projects were like, "make a box." I made one for a model car once and i never got my car back . I think you should have been sneaky and used a nitrous oxide canister maybe that would just go boom though . |
