Hey!

You need to create a second method right below the GoKart method. Inside of this method the barCount should be set to the maximum available amount of bars: 

class GoKart {
  public static final int MAX_BARS = 8;
  private String color;
  private int barCount;

  public GoKart(String color) {
    this.color = color;
  }

  public void charge() {
    this.barCount = MAX_BARS;
  }

  public String getColor() {
    return color;
  }
}

Make sure the new method does not return anything (which is why you have to use void).

Hope this helps!
