Derby Talk

I know this is a long shot but if anywhere would know of a place to find it I’m guessing it would be here. Just recently purchased a new to us track for our Cub Scout pack but it’s not been finished. It was started and half assembled using Beta Craft track. We are looking for 2-3 pieces to make a 2 lane track 46 foot. We currently have 9 sections total. Any help with finding some would be greatly appreciated.

Thank Steve

scoutshop.org used to sell those sections, but it seems that they no longer do. Not sure anyone sells that anymore.

Anyways, why such a long track? The challenge with such a long track is that it makes it harder for the slower cars to finish. It is disheartening for a child to build a car and then it does not even cross the finish line. I would recommend just using one less track section. It helps those slower cars and makes for tighter races with the faster cars.

This is the original company that made those track sections. They don't list the sections on their website, but maybe they still have a few collecting dust on a shelf.

Our current track is a homemade wooden track at 50 foot. The track our district race is a 46 foot best track just trying to keep it about the same length. We were able to purchase the Betacraft track and the start to a wooden frame for $50

Beta Crafts is no longer selling there pinewood derby kits on line as far as I know of.
Your old wooded track sounds like it will be fun for the boy's to race on with the track plating you were able to pick up.
