Weight Powered Car

[asadc]

Design Parameters:

- The car must have 4 wheels and 2 axles

- all car parts must remain attached to the main body of the car

- car must be powered only by a 2 pulley and rope system using a weight no heavier than 1 kilogram.

- Car must be hand made, but pre-made parts (ex. Toy car wheels) may be used.

 

They are the requirements for the project. I did some brain storming and i have some questions and you guys can even give me some creating ideas .

Questions:

i was thinking of using Styrofoam as the structure of the car ?

Would wood (lol ) be a better option ?

If any of you guys make a rough image along with your ideas would be very explanatory and i would be very thankful :confused:

i can use any or all tools.

Thank again :eek_big::):eek_big::):singer:
