Quick Pinewood Derby Car WINS applying Science!!!


7 basic measures that Really Make any difference to developing a profitable pinewood derby car. I crafted a car in 45 minutes working with these measures and crushed all the competitors by a lot more than 2 car lengths (proof is in the movie 🙂 Particular many thanks to Steve at DerbyMonkey.com for supplying his knowledge and supplies for the video clip.

    …back in the pre-internet days of the 1970's, the closely-guarded secret was to drill small holes into the underside of the car, approximately an inch forward of the rear axle. Then you poured molten lead (from fishing sinkers) into the holes. Because adding weight this way was illegal, you had to sand the top of the lead "plugs" flush with the wood surface, then keep adding coats of paint until it hid the plugs. I don't think cars were weighed or really scrutinized at all before placing them on the track. So we scouts learned that not getting caught cheating was the way to win.
