Race Day is Tuesday!!!! Is your base built??? any friction you are creating will only slow your car down... where would friction occur?? How did you build your base...?? explain?
We do have our base built, and we're working on the details now. A place where friction occurs on our car is on our axles, where we put rubber bands to make sure our wheels didn't move too much.
Our base is prety much built. We are still tweaking a few things. Friction from string holding our wheels in place may slow our car down. We built our base with thin wood though it is kind of heavy.

Our base is almost finished. So far, we have taken a piece of foam, cut it in half, and cut it so that it is more triangular. We've smoothed it out and added the back wheels, but we still need to put on the front one.
Friction would occur between the spinning axel and the two circular pieces of plastic we've put it through in order to attach it to our base. Friction would also happen between the wheels and the ground when the car is in motion.
Andrew and I have the car finished except for attaching the string that connects the lever arm to the axels. It's hard wrapping the string sround in order to make the car move, but hopefully we'll get the job done before race day.
Cam and my base i s built, and there is no friction. But our car tends to make a turn to the right as it goes. Our base is built out of a cardboard crayon box. It has other cardboard rectangles as axles hot glued on.
Our base is built. Friction would usually occur at the axles where it rubs against the base. Our base is two pieces of wood with holes at the back and the front for pencils.
Our base is finished. We made it out of the lid of a shoebox, and we put the axils(which are chopsticks) through holes that we drilled in the sides of the lid. Friction would probably occur there, with the axils rubbing against the base.
Amanda and i have our base built. Friction would occur with your axel rubbing against your base. We used eyehooks that we attacted to our base to put the axels through.
our base is built, we had a little friction on our wheels, but we fixed that. We had a block of wood and mounted the mousetrap on top of it and started building off of that.

Erin and I have most of our base built. friction would most likley occur when the back axle rubs against the holes we made in the back of the base.
we are using mostly tape

Julie and I have our base built out of lincoln logs. We have a lot of friction in our back axle because of our design. It is not looking too good!

We are still working on our base, but when we get that done it will be smooth sailing from there.

kainon n I have completely built or car. the friction would most likely occur between the axel and the whole in the base.
Chad and I have our base built completely out of balsa. All we did was glue the mouse trap to the piece of balsa wood.

laura and i have used popsicle sticks for our base, cd's for our wheels, baloons on the cd's for redusing friction, and pencils for axles.
