That's just not gonna work. If you're going to college, you should know that there's no propellers to make it stay in the air and so it would just be hovering over the ground and burning more rubber than it should...

But yeah, back on topic. That's pretty nice :P (Not that I want one though. :P)

If you were intelligent you would know that if it was to be hovering over the ground it would not "burn rubber" because friction is minimal.

More to the point, it wouldn't randomly be hovering because it's got wings. You'd most likely need to drive it off a cliff edge to create enough uplift, at which point it'd glide for a while until friction decreased upthrust enough to pull it back down to Earth. Which wouldn't take very long at all. I imagine it'd also need a pretty big wingspan.

not minimal. friction is ever-present, unlike god.

Well it's not going to magically hover...its gonna lose speed and fall onto the ground, where the the tires go from "no" resistance (air) to the ground and when it makes contact, it'll burn extra rubber due to the speed difference (thus why there are lots of rubber on ends of runways)
