We built a simple yet effective stand for our wrocket car today. It allows the wrocket car to stand vertically while we fill it with water instead of balancing the car with 1 hand and filling with the other. Its a small thing but makes preparing for launches easier.
Its just built out of wood but you can build one quickly to suit your own wrocket car.

Thanks for bringing water rocket cars to the attention of everyone here, Todd. It's great to see someone discover a new variation on the water rocket theme, and there's a lot of unexplored ground for people like you to pioneer. This is a fabulous contribution to the community!
