Go-Cart

Wheeling and dealing! The teams get enough junk to build go-karts, but whose design will be fastest and handle best? Each team will get the same lawn mower engine. The team's driver must weigh within five pounds of the other ... the rest is left to the team's design and building expertise and to the skill of the driver. - Contributor: weathrboy Both teams are to build go-karts. Problems arise on the Red Team with fitting the chain at the right length, easily solved with the Engineer Clint. Two minutes before preparation time ends, the steering handle breaks off, another problem for the red team. The Blue Team appears to be cruising with ease when a problem with weight bending the frame causes slack on the chain. An extra cog is added to remedy the problem, but they only get the job half done when time runs out. During the race, both teams appear to be moving efficiently. Blue team has a problem switching drivers because of the steering wheel being too close to the petals.
