Does the weight of a toy car impact its speed going down a ramp?

Yes, the weight of a toy car can impact its speed going down a ramp. Heavier cars may have more momentum and force, which can make them travel faster down the ramp compared to lighter cars with less momentum. However, factors like friction and the angle of the ramp can also affect the speed of the car.

How does wind speed effect cars?

Wind speed can affect cars by creating aerodynamic forces such as drag and lift. Higher wind speeds can increase resistance on the vehicle, leading to reduced fuel efficiency and potentially affecting handling. Strong gusts of wind can also make driving more challenging, especially for taller or lighter vehicles.

What limits a cars speed?

There are a variation of things that affect the limit of a cars speed, primarily the horsepower and torque ratings of the car, in comparison to the weight of the car, but even with high ratings in comparison to weight, most cars also have a governing chip in the computer system, that shuts of the valves at a certain designated speed. I hope this answers your question.
