Pinewood Derby

Vern had his pinewood derby competition this weekend. He used his car from last year as he couldn't do Pinewood Derby last year because of all the trouble he was getting into.  You can't tell from the photos below but it looks a lot like an old car his dad used to have - 1978 TransAm. Gold and everything.  His car was pretty fast. He won quite a few of his heats but not enough to place in the top 3. The top winners were only .001 second off each other so good races.  John, my oldest, also entered a car in the open class. He got consistently second but no trophey for him either. They had a fun time.
