Rubber Band Powered Car to answer Carissa's question - test run

This short video just shows the test run. One of my subscribers was having a problem with her version of my Rubber Band Powered Car #9. She uploaded a video to show me the problem and I could see I hadn't made it clear enough how I attached the rubber band at the front of the car. She had attached it to the front axle and that stopped the front axle turning. The fix was to take the band off the front axle and attach it to a paperclip pushed on the rim of the tube. Alternatively put a ball pen tube through the front of the car and put the axle inside it so it is free running. You can then attach the rubber band to the ball pen tube without stopping the front axle from turning. (That is how I did it in #9 but it may not have been clear on the video).
