- I was impressed with our mousetrap vehicle's performance. I thought it did very well, since we won the longest distance traveled. I was a little disappointed in the drag race part of the competition, because we did not win.Our mousetrap traveled for an average distance of 9.8 m. During the longest distance traveled, it went over 11 m.
- I would change the wheels for the drag race to smaller ones. The smaller wheels would mean faster rotation which would increase acceleration.
- If I could design a new car, I would make it have only 2 large records for wheels. The mousetrap would be attached to a rotating axle. The rotating movement would increase the distance traveled. Having only 2 wheels reduces the amount of friction invovled.
