Science Buddies: "Ask an Expert"

I need advice on building a mouse trap car or a good kit to use, my project is due in two weeks, and I appreciate all advice that is given to me.

Hi,

Science Buddies does not appear to have a project idea on mousetrap cars, though the question has come up before. Here is a search result set on postings about mousetrap cars that might be of help:

Here is a commercial site that sells kits, plans, and parts for mousetrap cars. I cannot recommend it as I have no experience with them.

Here is a wikipedia site on mousetrap cars:
