This vehicle carried six mice, but had the potential to carry alot more.
Another participant in the race achieved 128 mice, and at this point the
Superman mobile decided to retire.
Possible improvements to the car;
* Place rubber bands around the tires for increased friction between the floor and the wheels
* Place a larger basket on the car so that it could carry more mice
* Use swiss bearings for least amount of friction in the rotation
Suggestions for future contest;
The problem with this project was that it wasn't very challenging, it was very easy to obtain
the minimum of three mice, so in the future to make the project a little more challenging,
the following suggestions should be taken into consideration
* Make the track longer
* Use only one mouse trap so that the car has less power
* Make the minimum amount of mice a larger number
