You will need: chairs Chairs are laid out in a horse shoe shape facing inward. Everyone in the circle gets given a part: gear, break, or wheel.

When the leader shouts “breakdown”, everyone must run into the horse shoe and sit down on a chair. Last person to sit down is out. Players must always run clockwise
