Hey Brian,
for creating a new object you need a class. This class is a blueprint that stores parameters (something an object of that class knows) and methods (behaviors of the object of that class). 
To create an object you should write the name of the class:
java
GoKart

then the name of the object (use your imagination, but follow conventions (s. internet))
java
goKartObject

and then:
java
= new GoKart();

but don´t forget to give your new created object a parameter. In the challenge it is a String representation of color, for Examnple "red"
So the line should look like this
java
GoKart goKartObject = new GoKart("red");

Hope it helps :)
