that's what i have been doing.. gas all the way..
figured that's the fastest way. i been making cars with low center of gravity long wheel base so not to tip easy. and some times with baffles to keep the nut in place.

seems like some jumps the nuts roll to the front and flip the cart over or roll to the back visa versa.

i think i did... i'll try again. i forget

i timed just a wheel and i couldn't get it to the end in less the 20 seconds. i dunno how to go any faster then that. i dunno i'm doing something wrong..

my buddy is an engineer, i'll send it to him.. he has a way of explaining things so i can understand him

The speed of your computer has a lot to do with it. Faster computers have faster times.

I've gotten 16 seconds with 15/15 once. This is addicting.
Bomber, how the he?? did you get 9 seconds?

I'm not sure how to get a screen shot on here so I will explain. I just put some straight lines through the wheel and it seemed to give it traction. Anyone else want to try it? Only leave it sticking out a little bit though, and the line has to go through or it is wobbly.



Never mind. Doesn't work very good with the coconuts in the cart
