Hey! That's me at 12:50 ! Super cool to see a Science Olympiad event highlighted on your channel! It was great to meet you and talk about my car.

I think I just found a lifetime hobby. Every science teacher Iāve ever had said I possess an extremely intuitive understanding of physics and this seems to be a perfect application of that. Just seeing this video makes my mind go crazy thinking of all the ways I could attempt to improve the design. I wonder if you could devise an equation that could predictably determine what the optimal ratio of mechanical advantage for a given car would be, accounting for factors like weight, wheel diameter, coefficient of friction on the wheels, axels, and every other moving part where friction is present. Obviously thereās a perfectly optimal car that could be made if you could fully understand all these factors and thatās what is most alluring to me.

When we did this in highschool our speed/acceleration contest was only over a meter, so I just used the mouse trap to catapult my car over the finish line.
