Keep being told no on this one:
public class Example {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("We are going to create a GoKart");
GoKart gokart = new GoKart();
}

29,567 PointsWhen you instantiate the class GoKart you are supposed to pass in a String argument to the constructor:
GoKart goKart = new GoKart("red");
Something like that.
Any time that you instantiate an object you need to know how the constructor was setup so you know how many arguments it takes if any. If you try to instantiate an object with an incorrect number of arguments the compiler will throw an error.

31,093 PointsAwfully strange, doesn't really say to put a color in there. Got that and was able to finish challenge 2 (made a mistake at first by not adding a ")" to the code).
Thanks.
