Not sure where the problem is.

Don't know why I keep getting Bummer Try again

racecar.py 
class RaceCar:
    laps = 0

    def __init__(self,color,fuel_remaining,**kwargs):
        self.color=color
        self.fuel_remaining=fuel_remaining
        for key,value in kwargs.items():
            setattr(self,key,value)

    def run_lap(self,length,fuel_remaining):
        self.fuel_remaining = self.fuel_remaining - (length * 0.125)
        self.laps += 1

Your code is failing because of your method signature.

    def run_lap(self,length,fuel_remaining):

The code challenge validator is not expecting the fuel_remaining parameter.
