This video deserves two thumbs up. As a side note, such an unstable vehicle with limited steering can go off course very quickly at speed.

[@tfrowlett8752]

Great video, and I have some advice for a previous video of yours. Your hailstone video was good, but the technique for making hailstones is flawed. Because the ice freezes all at once, it becomes brittle. Real hailstones do so much damage because they freeze in layers. One idea you can try is putting a bead on some thread and alternate dipping it in ice water and liquid nitrogen. This effectively laminates the ice and makes it very, very hard. Richard Hammond used this technique in one of his documentaries on water, and it did a lot more damage. Might be good future continuation?

[@dnendion4300]

Great start! It is possible to go even faster with a change in the steering system to provide better stability and maybe just a different set of tires. Your pivot point and steering system are great at low speeds while being dragged along but at high speeds can easily get into a wobble. If you add a steering rack and move the wheels further forwards you get that stability that you need. Also stiffening up the chassis can't hurt at all.
