hi from secret lab ;)

Post by airflow »

hello i am a water rocket car scientist, i experiment with different features of my car, i am now working on re-enforcing wheels as most of them end up getting loose due to the enourmous vibrations and send my car tumbling for a good 10 meters at high speeds. i also work on different air wings or "spoilers".

Hi airflow, welcome to the forum. You are in luck as there is a whole new sub-forum on water rocket cars just for you.

Usernames in blue have registered as WRA2 members. It's free, just fill out the forms. Green means the user has posted (I think it's) 15 messages, and can view the 'advanced' topic.

If you look at the bottom of the main forum page, there's a key to the colour codes.

Hi Airflow

Welcome to the forum .... Great to see more people with interest in water rocket cars ...

I was half expecting to hear an evil mad scientist laughter when you said hi from your secret lab :) LOL !!

We would love to see what you have developed .. so post pics / videos if you get a chance ...

I look forward to seeing your posts in the water rocket cars section of the forum

Welcome to the forum!

It's really great to see you guys inventing new forms of water rocketry and doing all these pioneering experiments. Anyone who works in a "secret lab" is sure to keep the topic lively. We will definitely be following the Water Rocket Car Sub-forum closely!

by the way i dont work in a secret lab :wink: and airflow is is our team's name, i think you might know jelo, hes part it too :wink:
but i do experiment with water rocket cars, i went to the beach today, i think wet sand is the best surface to experiment on, thesurface is completely flat and smooth so you cant blame a pebble for making your car turn :mrgreen: most of all, the area is huge and there is/should be water available in large quantities (the sea for those of you who didnt get it)
videos will be up soon
