Worlds Fastest Rubber Band Powered Racer
The Sling Shot is the an ultra fast rubber band powered racer that will travel 5 meters in under 1-second. The Sling Shot is engineered to generate a tremendous amount of torque causing explosive starts and incredible acceleration. The secret to this racers design is the pulley system used to stretch the rubber band instead of winding it as on other vehicles, this system maximizes the transfer of potential energy into kinetic energy. The Sling Shot is the clear winner for all speed contests and the design of its ultra sticky foam wheels are essential for keeping The Sling Shot from spinning out at the start line and providing maximum traction to the road. The Sling Shot produces so much torque that it will pull a wheelie off the start line.




Engineered for Success and Performance
This super lightweight rubber band racer is special designed by Doc Fizzix to have maximum acceleration and speed. This kit uses low rotational inertia wheels as well as a lightweight balsa wood frame. The secret is the design of the pulley system that is unlike other conventional rubber band racers. The kit will require some cutting and drilling.

Includes the following: balsa wood, super low inertia wheels, pulley system, axles, rubber band, ultra sticky foam wheels, and step-by-step plans secret performance tips.
