This is a CO2 car made for an engineering design class. The cars were drawn on Pro-Desktop and then constructed afterward.

Looks cool, also dangerous, someone could lose an eye or an ankle.
Nice job.

lol race day was a pretty good time =] we have to string fishing line through eye hooks connected to the cars to keep them from launching out.

....although launching them is pretty fun too =p

Sweet car, I remember making those. Our guide line went from the metal shop, through an office and into a wood shop. My car got squirrely and hit the door jamb of the teacher’s office…exploded on impact. Not to be critical, but I think the most aerodynamic design is actually the opposite of what you have there, like a raindrop with the pointy end at the back. It still looks awesome!

Racing 7th graders as a teacher makes me happy lol
