Requirements

The RC Baja Car must withstand a vertical drop on one wheel from 2 feet.
The chassis will weigh less than 7 pounds.
The RC Baja Car must withstand a front impact force of 135 lbf while traveling at 15 mph.
The RC Baja Car must be able to maneuver in multiple different terrains in the ASME Baja course and complete in under 60 seconds.
