When engineers design something new, they need to think about forces like gravity and friction. Friction is a force that slows and stops moving objects. Without friction, any object that was pushed or pulled would keep moving forever. Build a model car out of and test the friction of your car on different surfaces!

1. Design and build model cars
2. Use model cars to test the friction of different surfaces
3. Race your cars!
