The progress of the car went really well. We finished the entire car in one Sunday working nine hours from 9am to 6pm. We didn't expect to work this long but we got carried away and were too concentrated in our construction. Also, due to time constraints of finals and AP tests, the weekend was the first weekend we could start and after that was finals so we wanted to finished within the time frame of the weekend. We created the unpainted version of the car with the implemented steering system and the wheel rolling system (PVC against dowel). Also we added non paint related decorations to the car. Many aspects of the car that day were improvised based on the materials we had and from there we created our car.
Problems: We were too picky about cardboard so we went to walmart twice and drove all the way to costco for the spoiler. Also it wasn't stable. We had to take it apart glue it and tie to stabilize it multiple times because came apart. We also had to distance wheel away from body of the car to prevent contact.
