Change to design

I have decided to place the engine on top of the car, with the batteries angled on top of that. This is because the engine would have to be quite far forward in order to match the cogs if it were underneath, and this could make the car more unbalanced. I think it would be more important to have the car less aerodynamic but more balanced, than unbalanced and aerodynamic.

I have also progressed further in the creation of my car. I have attached the large cog and wheels to my car. It goes almost perfectly straight, leaning a very slight amount to the right, but not enough that I bothered fixing it. An image of my car so far can be seen below.
