What is That??

That is a Coaster Car. It's kinda like a soap box derby car. A completely gravity powered coffin on wheels. Ethan, Joel and I are in the process of building this for Ethan to race this spring and summer. It's been a lot of fun for all of us. We just finished up the brakes and steering yesterday. Of what few test runs we've done, we've figured out one thing: It's way faster than any of us thought it would be! We've still got a lot of work to do on it. It's supposed to look like Herbie the Love Bug when we're done. We're a long way from that! Our first race will be in Houston, Missouri at the Emmett Kelly Days, May 6th. We'll be busy with it till then! Posted by Picasa
