Run an ice tournament, build a rally track with the winner, then race.

Boats on land? On ice, they fly. Build the slipperiest race track in the world and challenge the whole family.

What you’ll build

Run a fair test of three kinds of ice by racing a boat down matching straights and averaging the times. Crown the slipperiest ice, use it to build a rally loop with tight corners and a sneaky jump, then race a family member.

Finish line: You've found the fastest ice, built a rally track from it and raced a family member three laps.

Bonus challenge: Design the Corner of Doom: a turn so tight that nobody can take it without touching the wall. Can anyone in the family do it?

You’ll need

  • Ice
  • Packed ice
  • Blue ice
  • A boat
  • Wall blocks
  • A stopwatch

You choose

  • My rally's name
  • My bet for the fastest ice
  • My boat's name

Stuck?

  • Keep the test fair: same boat, same start, same full speed. Only the ice changes.
  • Boat sliding off corners? Add low walls along the outside of every bend.
  • Times all over the place? That's why you average three runs for each ice.
