In Rocket Car Racers, participants will design and build CO2-powered drag racers while learning the physics principles behind speed: aerodynamics, rolling resistance, and inertia. Designers will sketch their car designs, carve wooden bodies, and then sand, paint, and add decals for the perfect finish. Along the way, they’ll master free body diagrams to understand the forces acting on the car. Finally, they’ll race their creations to see who becomes the Rocket Car Champion!
