Tyler had his third and final Pinewood Derby a few weeks ago. Is this an awesome car or what?! He named it Four-Eyed Monster, and two of our neighbors helped him drill the holes. One even showed up at the race.
What started out as a mistake may have actually helped him win. He messed up a little bit cutting it out, so they turned it upside down and drilled new wheel holes. It was a fast car!
This was Dallin's first Pinewood Derby. He was so excited!
Dallin's totally awesome car! He named it Liquid Gold.
I love the big hole in the middle.
My boys all love going to these.
You may have been to a Pinewood Derby before, but you've never been to one like this. Our cub master does an incredible job, with fog and lights and music. Wow! What a show.
Each car had 16 races - 4 times in each position. There was an intricate computer program showing the exact times of each car after each race. Tyler got the track record for all four track lanes!
Dallin's car did well too - it won some, it lost some. Mostly it was just a lot of fun. I told Dave: 7 down, 8 more cars to go.

Wow! I'm super impressed! Especially now that I have some experience under my belt!
Awesome cars! Aaron told us all about it. Caleb is super excited to do the derby next year. I have a feeling ours will pale next to yours.
