week 3 drag raceing

The design squad had a challenge to make a drag car out of a wagon or mini bike . The blue team had the wagon and they thought of a spool idea first you took a axle with a wheel on each side and spun string then add it to a axle with two wheels . They then attached the drills to one wheel and the string will add to the other freewheel.The red team just attached the wheel and axle to the drill and extended the drills buttons to the top of the handle bars. In the end the red team one because the blues string got tangled and stoped working.They both worked together with there teams by adding ideas and listening to one another.

If i had this challenge first i would brain storm i would see if i could keep it simple. I would have attached fasted drill to the too back wheels because that will make them move faster. Then i would of added an extension to the drills and put it on the front of the wagon and move with the front wheels . I learned that there are many ways to approach things. Also that adding the power to the wheels make it move faster. Finally it is important to add all team mates ideas in the final product to heads are better then one.
