Results
On the day of the competition, my car traveled about 29.1 meters, which was the second best distance in my class. I was happy with the results, and they were exactly what I expected them to be.
The only other car in my class that beat me went 39 meters. Some factors that helped his car beat mine was that his car only had three wheels, which reduced the weight, and his front two wheels were about 5 centimeters in diameter, which also decreased the weight. His car also had a much longer arm than mine, which helped it stay in motion for a longer time, enabling it to go farther.
