Lavonia The Failed Balloon Bottle Car
2020-2020
Rest in peace
This is the bottle car prototype. She was going to
look better but we had no time to accessorize and
this is why she looks like a piece of recycling.

Things that went well: We got a bottle, and
managed to prepare something in the limited time
frame we had. She participated in the two races.

Things that didn’t go well: Laviona’s wheels
didn’t move. She moved three inches away from
the ramp where we let her go. Gravity pulled her
down the ramp and air resistance forced her to
stop. The force of the air resistance combined
with the non working wheels and stopped her
three inches from the ramp. Her balloon failed to
push her even a millimetre. The wheels were not
aligned and were working against each other.
