[SOLVED] What's wrong here?

Not sure what I'm doing wrong...

racecar.py 
class RaceCar:
    def __init__(self, laps = 0, color, fuel_remaining, **kwargs):
        self.color = color
        self.fuel_remaining = fuel_remaining
        self.laps = laps

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

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

Ok I figured it out. For anyone looking at this the issue was that I put "laps = 0" too early in the init method. It was supposed to be after "fuel_remaining".
