When I was getting my engineering degree, all the different schools of engineering had a contest at the end of each spring quarter. We had to build a cardboard boat and race it with paddles across Tech’s swimming pool. We built a canoe type boat with outriggers for stability. The boat to either finish first, or go the farthest wins. We came in second. That mechanical engineering came in first. We had some pretty cool looking, and pretty crappy looking boats.
But we NEVER had anything that looked like that cardboard tank. That thing is awesome.

when i was little one of my friends father built him a little go cart , so not wanting to be left out in the fun another friend of mine and my self tried to build one of our own we used my father lazy boy leather recliner and three lawn mower motors one of which was my fathers , but your only young once , we were so proud of ourselves and figured we would at least be able to go 30 maybe 40 mph it caught fire on start up guess gas and duct tape can't build a rocket ship or cushin leather belt blows on a backside, but the lazy boy sure burnt fast .
