Default lava launchers

My son just built the lava launcher roller coaster but the motor doesn't seem to have enough power to get the car to the top. We tried starting the car at the top for momentum and wipeing the car with a wet cloth, but it only gets about a quarter of the way up. Any ideas?

Are the Batteries new?

If It only makes it a quarter of the way up, then It's definitely either the batteries, or an underpowered/broken motor. I would suggest Contacting Knex Customer service (through the phone for faster results) if it is the latter.
