the challenge 

Take a bowl of trifle on wheels, a 12 metre ramp, 84 competitors, 50,000 spectators...and Murray Walker!! Let the crashing commence!!

the wheels

Home made go-karts, powered by gravity, and in our case constructed from this extensive    design drawing in 4 days and never tested downhill until race day!

the rules

Race heats consisting of 4 karts head to head. Points awarded for kart design, finishing place and most importantly, crowd pleasing (which was about our only hope of success as we binned it in to the crowd in a wave of custard and cream!)

difficulty rating

Start line...crash...finish. Easy.
