Today Ben had moved the finished go-karts to the top of Griffith Way so they could shoot down and across the causeway. A small gaggle of rickshaw drivers with "yeah, we told you it wasn't easy" looks on their face were already watching on the sidewalk.
"Today we're going to race the go-karts," he announced with a grin, "and then we're going to work on something for next week: flying crafts. I'm going to build a platform over by the docks and after the race today, we'll go back to the Danger Shop where you have to build a contraption with a maximum wingspan of 28 feet, max height of 10 feet, max length of 20 feet, and max weight of 400 pounds, including the pilot. It can't use stored energy, ropes, or pulleys. to launch off the platform--whoever's ship goes the furthest wins."
He grinned. "I have some footage of a similar event back in the Danger Shop for us to watch, too. Anyway, let's get this race going. On your marks, get set...go!"
Push yourselves down the hill and go, go, go!
