fly Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Tomorrow is race day once again! This will be my sons last pine wood derby (till he has a son anyway). He wanted a hunting truck this year and this is what we came up with. The pinewood derby has been great over the years. He took 2nd four years ago with the Eagle car. The next year we made Bob and just like in the movie he moved rather slow. Last year the batmobile was the fastest car on the track. Wish us luck!

fly Posted January 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Was hoping for best in show - knew we should have went with RT AP pattern! Oh well, 2nd place will do just fine to finish out our PWD racing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LETMGROW Posted January 22, 2012 Report Share Posted January 22, 2012 Man, do I remember those days. We spent hours together shaving and shaping wood, truing wheels, buffing axles ,drilling the body for low center of gravity weight. What a rush when my son walked away with the first place trophies. I still have all the cars we built together. GOOD LUCK!!! Lynn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
