Team Josh District win

Post by Speedster »

THANK YOU , Derby Talk, for all the information you have provided over the past year. It has been incredible. "Team Josh" took 1st place in the Commodore Perry District this afternoon in the Webelos 2 race. Our competition, the little Green car that beat everyone by a car length last year, either didn't show up or didn't have a fast car. We built a rail rider this year (sort of) . Strangely enough we beat everyone by a car length this year.
On another note, we have fairly strict rules. The inspectors this year stuck the car in a box, handed it to the gent with the scale, weighed it, and put it on the rack to be transported to the track. No checking for 4 on the ground, canting, or anything else. I talked with the District Executive and the Gentleman who is in charge of the District Derby. They both welcomed me to the next Pinewood Derby meeting. I hope I am able to get rid of the 4 on the ground rule.
Thanks again, Gentlemen. We could not have done it without you.
Cheers
Speedster
