On Task 2, I'm getting a message which says "Task 1 is no longer passing". This happens when I fill in anything (anything presumably incorrect, that is ) in the constructor. Any idea as to how to get around that?
class GoKart {
private String color = "red";
public GoKart(String color) {
}
public String getColor() {
return color;
}
}

inside of the constructor. It's important to note that when accessing private fields in a class, you refer to them using this.<fieldname>
.
Full code:
class GoKart {
private String color = "red";
public GoKart(String color) {
this.color = color;
}
public String getColor() {
return color;
}
}
