VEX Drag Race Your name, date, hour

Constraints Constraints: There will be 3 races: 5 meter, 10 meter and 20 meter One motor, one cortex, one battery Measure top angular velocity of drive wheel (rotations per second) Top speed (meters/sec) Car must stop after the black finish line. Final grade will be published on this PowerPoint

Evidence of design Photo of multiple potential car designs

Car name Photo of car

Gear Ratio Show photo of gear ratios, For every turn of the motor the wheel turns? Example; 1:4, 1:8

Rotational Velocity and top speed Rotations per second ____________ Meters per second _______________ Graph of distance vs time of all three races
