Surprised nobody used a Kettcar... The older ones had hard plastic tires.


That Kettler car looks like the way to go. The guy I work with is really bent on taking the guy with the Barbie Jeep down. The Barbie Jeep won again this year. I'll see if I can talk him into looking at a Kettcar and see if he can actually find one that will meet the requirements. Knowing him, if it costs more than $20, he doesn't want to spend the money. The faster you want to go, the more it costs! He actually fond out how they are lasting though 2 heats, bearings in the wheels! As long as the wheels are plastic, you can mod it with bearings. He found out that the little VW that he had, the wheels had melted and were loose on the axles by the end of the second run. He just did make it across the finish line when it stopped rolling! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
One other thing is you cannot purposely weight the vehicle of choice to gain an advantage. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />
