Originally, I wasn't going to make the car very functional. However, I
noticed that I had plenty of room under the front hood to add some
steering. I also realized that the way the cars in the Ultimate LEGO
Book are built, the wheels probably don't even turn. I guess I took that
as a challenge to make my model as functional as possible.

Is that a challenge to motorize an even smaller car? :) It's true that
it would take some effort to cram a battery box in there, but I just hook
up the wires to an RCX and plug the RCX into the wall with an adapter I
found in our house :) Thanks for the comments,
