3. Engineering Challenge #1 Sound Activated Dragster
Design, build & program a Dragster-Bot that:
Begins racing at the sound of the starting “gun”
Stops as a result of reaching the finish line (race it over when dragster comes to a stop)
Stays within its racing lane
Covers the track in the shortest time possible
Uses only the parts from one kit
Have Fun!!!
