4. What does it do Ball drops down a series of PVC ramps
Lands in a cup which is on a see-saw
See-saw pushes Hotwheels Gt90 down an incline into a booster
Booster gives car enough energy to pull a metal sliver
Mentos are on top of the sliver and falls into a 2 Liter of Diet Pepsi
A glorious fountain for everyone to enjoy
