Derby!!!!!



We had the annual Pinewood Derby this past week on the 18th. I thought I would post a few pics. Luckily we only had to construct one Derby this year. They did not give out a first place again although Austyn won every heat he was in. This is Austyn and Dad getting things put together, austyn does not look to sure here this is the night before the race.
Here is Austyn and his first place ribbons he got.
This is Aust and his buddies checking each others cars over in between racing.

This is the Wonderful wooden track that our scout master constructed and sad to say it broke once the Weblos were racing. They only got to race one time, luckily Austyn had already done his racing. That was the second time it broke they had already fixed it once. He was a little disappointed because they were going to have a race off but that got cut short.
Here is Austyns car. It was going to be camouflaged but the paint turned out to be brown so I came up with the idea of stenciling his Nickname "stretch" down the car, he really like the idea and though it was pretty cool.
So happy Derbying everyone, and until next year!
