Each colour is made up of light waves.
Different colours produce different frequencies of light waves.
The higher the frequency, the more waves of light the car has to push through to go forward.
Less frequency = less mass of light waves to push through = faster car.

Also

The amount of energy in a given light wave is proportionally related to its frequency, thus a high frequency light wave has a higher energy than that of a low frequency light wave.
This being true, it takes more energy to thrust a high energy/frequency colour car forward.

Therefore

Low frequency/energy colours win

The chart below shows that red has the lowest frequency

White is not a colour, it is a mixture of all colours, so actually carries all of the above frequencies in one!! :shock:

This makes white the heaviest and slowest colour of all. :lol:
What you have clearly failed to take into account is that while white may contain all the other colours, it does so in a compressed state - you need a prism to uncompress the white light into its component colours. This means that in terms of 'pushing' light waves, thanks to the compression, it's likely pushing less than any individual colour on it's own. Also, as light is both a wave and a particle, all of this made up science is just as good as real science! Hurrah!

Isn't it almost as simple as there are less "ingredients" required to make red pigment? Or whatever ingredients are used to create red end up being lighter than any other colour? I always remember reading/hearing that somewhere when I was younger.

Tin worm equals less metal so I'm going to say the rusty lude wins

At the end of the day all that really matters is that the 4th gen is faster... No matter what colour it is ;-)
