Council is on the 14th, so we've got some time to dial it in. It's 1/4 oz. light, so we'll play with that.
Daughter's Girl Scout car. All show, no go. Best time of 3.32 on 40' track. Won Best in Show for Brownies.

Re: 2012 cars
Thanks for the compliments guys!
What stats do you want on the Bear car? I'll be honest, it was dumb luck on the speed. With 4 wheels down, running straight, it was in the 3.25 range on a 40' track. With the rail rider setup (which a friend did for me) we dropped to the 3.07-3.12 range.
The driver head is from an old Revell 1/25 kit that included a trailer, toolbox and pit equipment.
