With Pitsco Education's AP Dragster - Getting Started Package start to help students understand force and motion, potential and kinetic energies, and more with this fun activity. It uses a plastic bottle to create a racer that flies down the track powered by air pressure. These are fun to build, and students can personalize their racer with paint, decals, or other items. Pack includes the kits, launcher, tire pump, and other items needed to lead the activity. Track length is 35' to 40'. Requires small shaping tools such as a coping saw, wood shaver, and sanding stick or sandpaper, sold separately.

Searching for an introduction to racing that delivers the same excitement in the classroom as CO2 dragsters? The AP dragster activity provides a fun and safe racing experience for a fraction of the price.

This racing system is small enough that you can run a race in the classroom or hallway and then easily store the unit. To use the AP Dragster Launcher, just attach an air pump, slide two air-powered vehicles onto the launch tubes, pump to build air pressure, and press the button to simultaneously launch two cars down a 35- to 40-foot track! The launcher comes with a string anchor, which includes a spring-tension feature to maintain even string tension.

Using the AP Dragster Designer Kit, students can create a vehicle based on aerodynamics and other racing principles. Or, use the AP Mini Dragster Kit to demonstrate potential vs kinetic energy, force, motion, and other concepts.

The launcher features a built-in pressure relief system to keep air pressure to fewer than 40 psi. With HDPE construction and a built-in air gauge, the launcher is sturdy, and its dual-pressure tanks provide consistently even launches. Launcher is 16" x 11" x 3" and requires a hand pump or bicycle pump, sold separately. No assembly required.

This air-powered vehicle kit, perfect for restocking your Getting Started package, includes a balsa wood body blank that students shape, enabling them to apply knowledge of aerodynamics, friction, and other principles. After shaping the dragster, they assemble it and launch it on the AP Dragster Launcher, an air-powered launcher (not included).

No curriculum or equipment included.

Water rocketry is one of the most fun and exciting hands-on science activities around. Converting empty plastic soda bottles into high-flying rockets provides a great opportunity for students to discover important scientific principles such as Newton’s laws, acceleration, thrust, and inertia.

Axle Hubs are used to attach gears and wheels to axles and axles to structural elements. Features heavy-duty aluminum construction.
