I am thinking it won't be powered my mousetrap, elastic, batterys, orsomething like scrambler
so whats left? counterweight attached to the vehicle? air pressure propelling it (CO2 cartrage)?

Re: Mousetrap Vehicle C
and the fact of the rules being totally being redone kinda implies that there will be a different source of power and not fishing rod
