The size of the car was 34.5 inches. The weight of the car was 134 grams. The wheel size was around 11.9 centimeters in circumference. The gear ratio was 1.3 to 1.7 centimeters. The components we used were a solar panel, spacers, a variation of cardboard, gears, an axle, wheels, and paper to cover a part of the car. Overall this costed around 11-15 dollars depending on where it was bought.
Very creative!
