I had to make a rubber band powered car for a class project/contest my first quarter in college. I made the frame from soldered brass tubing. The car won in my class, and then took first place in the competition with the other classes. So, it beat about 50 other people I think. It went from starting position to twelve feet away in 1.1 seconds. Although, these days, I hear some are running in the high 0.9s
