Design Components

I feel that our vehicle should be lightweight, yet very strong. It should be able to properly support the mousetrap and its force snapping forwards. Another key point is our wheels. We need small easily spun wheels for the drag race and large records for maximum distance. The axle needs to be strong and needs to easily rotate on the chassis without having friction on the axle causing the vehicle to come to a stop. Another key component is how our string is tied so that it does not tangle up and make the vehicle go backwards.
