racecar.py
class RaceCar():

    def __init__(self, color, fuel_remaining, **kwargs):
        self.color=color
        self.fuel_remaining=fuel_remaining
        self,laps=0
        self.length=length

        for key, value in kwargs.items():
            setattr(self, key, value)

    def run_lap(self):
        self.laps+=1
        self.fuel_remaining=fuel_remaining-(length*0.125)

Some hints:

  • you have a typo here: self,laps=0
  • length isn't a property of RaceCar
  • length should be passed in to run_lap()
  • you will want to update self.fuel_remaining with a calculation using self.fuel_remaining
