public void drive(int lapsRollin) {
lapsDriven += lapsRollin;
barCount -= lapsRollin;
}
public void drive() {
drive(1);
}

Front End Web Development Techdegree Graduate 33,271 Pointsit looks like you are calling the drive method inside the GoKart class, and without having actually instantiated a GoKart object. instead, in your main, create a GoKart object, then call the drive method on it.
