Basics
It's simple. You can't use wheels or pistons (oof, rip your car. Instant torque). You can use hinges, if that helps. I recommend using infinite rotators (the one provided is infinite), because... they're infinite.

Rules
-No pistons
-No car wheels
-No propellers, jet engines, or car engines (except for detail)
-No part limit
-xml allowed

Competition
There isn't a winner, it really isn't even a challenge. Just build a rotator powered car, and have fun. No grading or anything.

submit your builds in either the comments or as a successor, it's your choice

yeah

kbye

Enjoy

    I guess those are fine, too, if you managed to pull a track one off without any wheels
    Ooo..walker!

    It actually won't be that easy...
    But how hard is it to use a rotator?

    @RailfanEthan
    The rotator instant-start things, which is actually bad
    And they are not infinite still, it is just a very high rotation number. (maybe?)
    So when say it rotated 10 times when you throttle up it will rotate 10 times backward when you try to brake.
    That is why my Sphero use direct-driven piston engines.
    It DO provide good torque...
    But NOW, you have gun engines coming up. Hmmm...
