A fun design game

I figured this forum would give me the stiffest competition of any I frequent. Johnson Controls made this flash game where you have to design and race a cart through a series of obstacles.

I've spent a couple hours on it and the best I could do was 94% in 21 seconds. I'm attaching an image of my best cart to get you started.





Now I'm going to feel guilty for wasting the time of Reprappers 'round the world

I got a 97% with my tried-and-true tank design (heavily modified for speed, of course.)

Here's one that will waste even more time...

100% in 10 seconds. Just to huge wheels and a small compartment which is build like a fish trap to prevent the coconuts from getting out.

I'm sorry is it my pc that's too slow (maybe because of numerous open browsertabs)
or why does it take at least 4seconds just to load the coconuts..

it takes at least 53 sec to get to the far right.

So... 10sec?

It's weird, but I was seeing the same thing. Then I built a new vehicle that was shorter and it went much faster. I then gave up because I didn't want to spend a lot of time figuring out what rules the game uses.

I was able to get ~99% at ~15 seconds as my best score. I do think slow system speed might impact the results. Size of the wheels seems to impact how fast you can go (bigger is faster). I had to give it the longest wheelbase possible to accomidate the biggest wheels possible.
