Put a paintball or airsoft gun on top where the gun is, and shoot at the competition to slow them down.

Plus the FD would be harder to make. Totaly go wit hthe 180, not too many curves to deal with. Realy just use cardboard to make the car. and like Andrew said use PVC for wheels and spray paint the Drift Aliance vynal on it.

how did that even happen. lol. Is that a ramp at the back?

Anyways, don't make all the wheels plastic otherwise you won't be able to steer at all when you get up to speed, only the rears.
