CO2 Dragster 

 

The CO2 dragster was a project for our class. The point of the project was to build a car out of wood that could be propelled down a track by a CO2 cartarige and have it be aerodynamic. We could not build the car just any way we wanted it had to follow a set of perammiters that were givin to us by our teacher called the official CO2 dragster rules.

Are car took 14 out of 18 for weight

We took 16 out of 18 in aerodynamics

We took 12 out of 18 for time
