Okay....I've had alot of people ask for details.  Here's some details:

Flooring:  Carpeting (shag preferably just to make things difficult)
Set:  Mindstorms and expansion packs only (but if you NEED that extra beam,
it's not like I'll be by to check your creation)
Vehicle:  This is a Tractor "Pull".  Your ...thing... must pull a 10lb. weight
a set distance.  If you can get it to move the weight, you probably have a
good chance to keep it moving.  Doesn't have to be a dumbell.  I just used
what I had handy.

Just do what you want.  This just an idea.  Add to it.  Come up with other
bizarre twists.  USE YOUR IMAGINATION.  (sorry.  didn't mean to yell.)

And keep building.

....Maybe I'll start on my other project.  One of those old flip clocks made
out of Legos....
