Build a Rubber Band Powered Racecar

We just posted a new activity guide! Follow the steps to create a rubber band powered LEGO car! We used the NXT kits to build ours, but if you have some LEGOs with wheels and axels you should be able to modify our designs easily to start racing your cars. Remember, using your imagination and engineering skills is the name of the game. Race against your friends and try for the farthest distance for fastest car.

As you come up with new designs post comments and design tips.

Check out the new activity guide on the resources page, or download it directly.
