Model Car for science! Help (No mechanical parts)?

For science class i need to build a model car that can withstand certain impact (i do not know exact specifics of this) and there will be 2 eggs that are to represent people in the quot;carquot; The materials that we are allowed to use are:25 Craft sticks,20 drinking straws 1 plastic zipper bag 2 pieces of aluminum foil,A limited amount of glue 25 wood splints,2 plasyic cups for seats 2 sheets of paper 1 small roll of tape and 3 rubber bands.The vehicle has to be from10quot; L BY 8quot; W BY 2.5quot; H to 14quot;L BY 8quot; W BY 4quot; Hso i was just wondering if anyone had any ideas for beginning this carI was thinking of doing something like using the straws for the front of the car to crumple and therefore reduce the impact of the crash and making the actual frame of the car out of the craft sticks or something anyone else have any good ideas.

Answer:

6 (6 ounce) bass fillets, skin removed 2 teaspoons salt 1 teaspoon pepper 2 dozen littleneck clams 1 cup unsalted butter 2 shallots, finely chopped 1/4 cup fresh oregano, chopped 1/2 cup dry white wine 4 tablespoons lime juice (juice of 2 limes) olive oil Set a small saucepan over medium heat on a cooler part of the grillCombine butter, shallots and oregano and stir until butter meltsRemove from heat and stir in the white wine and lime juiceSet aside Lightly oil the fillets and season them with salt and pepperPlace fish and clams on medium hot grillCook for about 5 minutes, until fish begins to look opaque and clams are openingSpoon a little shallot butter into each open clam shell and grill for only a minute or two moreBrush fish with shallot butter and turn fillets overGrill until cooked through, about another 3 minutes.Discard any unopened clamsRemove cooked seafood from grill and serve.
Select firm fish like salmon, halibut or codLeaner items like sole and snapper will need to be wrapped in Aluminum foilShrimp or lobsters should be left in shellCalamari, clams and scallop will need delicate handling as they get tough overcookedI prefer not to marinate and season after cooking or brush on just before the items come off the grillUse a med fire instead of a hot searing oneTurn more frequently than burgers or steaks.
look in the cook book.
I'd design something that crusheslike something flexible.
