What is wrong?

I don’t see the error

racecar.py 
class RaceCar:

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

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

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

You are very close. The laps=0 should be in the __init__ parameters list. Otherwise, laps is undefined.

Post back if you need more help. Good luck!!!
