I am getting an error when i create a method in a class

class RaceCar:

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

    for k,v in kwargs.items():
        setattr(self,k,v)

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

that is the code i wrote bt i am getting ab bummer, wat should i do?

racecar.py 
class RaceCar:

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

        for k,v in kwargs.items():
            setattr(self,k,v)

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

Hi there,

I think you have missed the underscore out in fuel_remaining in your run_laps method.
