            In my senior physics class, we had to build mousetrap powered cars (I know it's not the same, but it's similar). We had a speed/distance competition, and a king of the hill competition. Is there a limit to the number of each of the listed items you can have? Can they be modified? If there's no limit, avoid using cds as the wheels, as they don't have enough of a contact patch to work well (they'll slip like crazy). Some of those items won't be suitable for building your rubber band powered vehicle. Also, the best piece of advice is: DON"T PROCRASTINATE. Work on it early, test, and modify as needed. Good luck, and I hope I helped some.
            There are three kinds of people in the world: Those who can count, and those who can't.

            With understanding comes understanding.

            If the saying is true that we are what we eat, aren't we all just cannibals?
