That's very much like the current one.

By the way, I came up with the cheapest, cheesiest way to complete the current challenge but I'm not telling. I haven't tried it yet, but I know it would work. I want to see if anyone else can come up with it too.

Should I lacks the requirements on the current challenge. I found them hard to meet. Allow malware cannons?

Catapults are boring if you ask me
But again, your challenge is pretty interesting

I'm not saying to challenge was bad, it's just not a good fallow up for the current one cause their alike.

I think the next one should be simpler.

OK, I got a new one, and it's not at all like the barrel launcher.
(and it's simpler)

Wire Mod rocket car.</span>

Goal: To make the fastest wire mod car possible.

Rules:
-Not allowed to modify anything's wieght.
-Can be built to any size.
-Not allowed to take off.

Map: Gm_flatgrass


Limits:

(These include wire mod versions and normal versions!)
-No more than 4 wheels (also includes props used as wheels)
-No more than 4 hoverballs
-No more than 5 thrusters
-No more than 3 props (not counting props used as wheels)

The winner will be dicided by:
Highest speed achivied (This will be measured with a speedometer)
Whos goes In a perfectly strieght line(Probably measured with a gps or ranger)
Extra points

-Looks count
-Stays at exactly the same speed.

Hints:
Try different combinations of wheels and hoverballs, because one might be more effective.
Try to make it stable, because the smoother the ride, the faster it will go!
<span style=\'color:#000000;background:#000000\'>Make a small system of thrusters to keep it going in a strieght line!



So wat da ya think?
I'll probably add more rules or change them a bit.

OOOOOOOO.
It's not an actual competition yet
but since solthar wants to do it does that mean that It might become an actual comp?
*Excited squeaks*
Just need TAD's approval.

I actually built a prototype, but it requires a locator.
"Is that allowed?", he asks himself.
