ianxofour | Bad Piggies: Hail Mary Pass @ianxofour | Uploaded 11 years ago | Updated 3 hours ago
This dragster catches a "Hail Mary" egg toss and drives it down to the end of the Field of Dreams map in a total of 15.1 seconds. The automotive wing actually produces downforce due to the negative angle of attack, and this force helps keep the drive wheel in contact with the road, which is critical in order to maintain maximum speed. The pig is placed under the airfoil because it offers a lower inertia (vs the V8) for the airfoil to overcome with its downforce. The tiny wheel is used to prevent the bottom of the dragster from jamming against the road. The left box and middle box can be made of wood in effort to lighten the dragster further, but I use metal boxes in this video to slow the dragster down a bit in order to coordinate the catch. The folded umbrella is needed only for securing the egg after the catch.
