Pinewood Derby Races

Well this was the big day for Colin's Cub Scout Pinewood derby race.  He picked the design of Perry the platypus (imagine that).  He did most of the work on it and I thought he did a great job.  I probably pushed him to try and get it perfect then realized just let him do the best he can.  Looks just like a platypus!! 

This was one of the heats he was in.  As I was helping with the races, I took pictures.

The last picture shows his car (third lane over) flying down the track.  He races 4 times and came in first two of the times.  A computer was used to time the races and calculate the winners.  It also figures the speed and one of Colin's speed was 127 MPH.  Now that is fast!!!

GOOD JOB COLIN !!!!!!
