On behalf of Mark and myself at HHWRSA, we would like to thank all those that voted in the poll to approve our record submission. TH:

We are really thrilled to be recognised by our peers in this way.

We are hoping that this northern hemisphere summer some others may try their hand at building and testing water rocket cars. They are certainly every bit as challenging and fun to build and launch as vertical water rockets :D

We are more than happy to provide answers or advice on any questions to do with water rocket cars in the water rocket car section of the forum here.
