Mousetrap cars

I noticed that there was a page that says build a moustrap car that can go over 19 meters! But last year in my school as a technology project we built mousetrap cars and, even though mine only went 52 ft. some went over 95! That is longer than 19 meters and we built them out of scratch and our own designs. We were limited to only a few rubberbands and only two cd's as wheels.

Mousetrap cars

Great! Could you send some pictures as well? It would be nice to see the cars.

The link to the 19 meter mousetrap car is very old now and we need to find better links...

Mousetrap cars

I've been wondering for a while-Would it be possible to build a Rat-Trap car? Those things have a lot of snap, and grip would be a problem as well as keeping the vehicle together.

LoL you are right Noah it would probably be even better than a mouse trap car.


I am sorry Tormod I don't have any pictures of them but my friend may have his still assembled and if he does I will try to get them to you.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.
