Trial 2


KM and HR
12/6/11

Our ballon car traveled 4.9 meters, yesterday it only traveled 3.3 meters, it went 1.6 more meters today.It moved further today, but we tilted it before we let it go so it wouldn't turn as must and as quickly as it did yesterday. It started turning near the end and stopped right before it hit the locker. Yesterday we had to straighten the steel pole that held our wheels, because it caused our car to turn. We taped out wheels to the car and they could have moved in the middle of the trial causing it to go to the side. Our car had good wheels, but they were slow, so if we created faster wheels using less friction then our car could have gone further. Our car was good and I am happy that it acheived the distance it did.
