Re: Mousetrap Vehicle B
Um, you might have got it wrong, you hit hit vertically, you can't hit it horizontally.rickyreports wrote:DO NOT PRESS IT VERTICLY THIS IS NOT ALLOWWEDmousetrapfury wrote:you dont need to if they are conected to the same rod it should also set off the other mousetrapretired1 wrote:Question: you can use two mousetraps, but you cannot modify the trigger.

Re: Mousetrap Vehicle B
Is it true that Mousetrap's gonna switch out to Gravity Vehicle next year? I heard from my friend.

Re: Mousetrap Vehicle B
How would people know next year's events already, if Nats haven't even happened yet?

Re: Mousetrap Vehicle B
I really don't want Mousetrap vehicle to change. It's a fun event, but I have to admit, Gravity Vehicle also sounds really cool. But yeah, I got .... 3rd? 4th? I forgot at State. It was really fun, but our car veered off. Which sucked.
