Re: This still online?
Come on, Sleestak, It's only been 4 months since the last one. Or did you mean you haven't been on Derbytalk for a year? Good Hearing from you, Your name is very familiar. What Ya been up to involving the Pinewood Derby?
Re: This still online?
I guess I meant havnt seen a post since 2019. What am I up to. Ready to defend my daughters title from 2019 in march. Dont mean to be a [censored] but they offer no competition so I told my daughter we are. It racing the other kids we are racing her car from last year. I still have all the times on the printout they gave us. I understand the track may not be identicle or even the same track. I am on pinewood derby online forum as well. New this year is better weight placement and I did splurge and but some fancy tires.
Re: This still online?
I've got an idea. Why don't you and your daughter build a new one and see if you can't beat the time of the one she raced. That will be a challenge for you and a lot of fun for her as she works along with you.
I'm a bit surprised the rules don't require a new car be built each year. If she won, and WON BIG, that car will be remembered and it might get disqualified. That might not affect you much because you can get over a loss in a few minutes but it will break a little girls heart.
