Looks like you didn't catch the exception.

public class Main { public static void main(String[] args) { GoKart kart = new GoKart("yellow"); if (kart.isBatteryEmpty()) { System.out.println("The battery is empty"); } kart.drive(2);

  while (kart.isBatteryEmpty()) {
  System.out.println("Go!!!");
  }
  try {
  kart.drive(10);
  }
   catch (IllegalArgumentException lose) {
   System.out.printf("Warning %s\n", lose.getMessage()); 
  }
}

}

Main.java 
public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        GoKart kart = new GoKart("yellow");
        if (kart.isBatteryEmpty()) {
          System.out.println("The battery is empty");
        }
        kart.drive(2);

      while (kart.isBatteryEmpty()) {
      System.out.println("Go!!!");
      }
      try {
      kart.drive(10);
      }
       catch (IllegalArgumentException lose) {
       System.out.printf(lose.getMessage()); 
      }
    }
}

Hi Alexandru,

you don´t need this code block:

 kart.drive(2);

while (kart.isBatteryEmpty()) {
System.out.println("Go!!!");
      }

The rest of your code looks good!
