Project Rules 1. The car must be powered by a single supplied mouse trap. 2. The mouse trap car cannot be physically altered except for the following: four holes can be drilled only to mount the mousetrap to the frame. (This will allow you to put it higher or lower in the frame& forward or further back in the frame) 3. The device cannot have any additional potential or kinetic energy at the start of the race other than that stored in the mousetrap’s spring itself. This also means that the car cannot be pushed at the start of the race. 4. The car may be painted or decorated. Decorated does not mean that added weight will be allowed as in trinkets or figurines to the car but decals will be allowed. 5. The spring on the mousetrap cannot be altered of modified in any way. 6. Vehicles must be self-starting. 7. The vehicle must self steer itself. Measurements of distance will measure the total distance travelled within the course layout and beyond. If the car clears the end of the track layout without going outside the lines the total distance will be scored. 8. Any car going outside the course layout will be measured at the point where it leaves the course. 9. The car must achieve a minimum of 15 feet inside the track layout or the run will be disqualified. 10. Each car will be allowed three runs. The best distance will be used.
