Rules FOR STUDENTS
You must use:
-1 NXT or EV brick
-2 motors
You must:
Build a robot that can go as fast as it can over 10 meters. It needs to start when you press the touch sensor.
Tips For students
Tip: Cars with four wheels will go straighter. Especially if both motors turn one axel.
Tip: Cars that use gears will go faster. A big gear on the motor and a small gear on the wheel will make the wheel turn faster. To use gears, the wheel's axel can't go through the motor's hole.
