    Gravity car wheel radius selection

    update Is there anyone that could provide a formula to help decide whether to use 20" vs 26" wheels? I have a set figure for the course distance.

    Gravity car wheel radius selection

    As someone who regretfully has never studied physics, I am at a loss as to how to begin to evaluate the choice of wheel radius for a gravity powered car I am building for a local gravity race. How would one go about picking a wheel radius that would maximize the speed of the vehicle?
