My 6 yr old's Tiger Cub Pinewood Derby race is this coming Wednesday, and he wanted his car to look like our Caddy.

That's cool. I still have the car my grandfather built for my dad. I even used it a couple years and placed. Good to see people still do this.

The race is in the books. In the first round, out of 30 cars or so, in four races, we went 3-1.

Cut to a top 12, went 0-2. :-( Car just slowed down. I think a couple of hits it took at the end of the track knocked the alignment out as it pulled to the right upon testing it after we got home.)

So, 3-3 in our first try. happy overall, and we had a great time!

Here is the the first run, we're in the left lane, Lane 1. (closest to the camera)



Here's my son...doing something. :suspect:

Maybe the blower was getting heat soak and pulling timing haha

I knew it would be fast just on looks!

Could be the wheels clicking?

:leaving:
