Doing the balloon car project was really fun. I was with Ashley and it took us a ton of tries! We first started off with a big car made out of styrofoam. It had big cd wheels and a funnel coming out of the back. We tested it and it of course did not work. So, the next day Ashley brought in some cracker jack box's. We thought that if we decreased the size of the car and wheels it would go faster. This model also did not work! Our third design was styrofoam, but with smaller wheels. Our farthest ground covered was 12 square blocks. We got in the bracket, but we lost to Elizabeth, Gray, and Lauren's car. Although we built a ton of models, it was still a really cool project and I had a great time doing it.
