Check out my son's Pinewood Derby car/boat
 

He (and I) worked real hard on this over the last few weeks. As usual, he came in dead last in the race. But he won "Most Original"!!!:jump: Very happy kid!!! Figured the boating theme would work well here. Fortunately he is as addicted to fishing as his Dad is.

very cool! job well done :btu:

very cool

That is nice, it would have won if there were a boat catagory.

Brings back memories, at 39 I think I still have 3 derby cars kicking around. One of which won quite a few races and went a couple stages/events in the process. Of course its number was 5.....speed racer.

You might of won if you went with a Yamaha! Cool car slash boat.

2 or 4 stroke?

That's awesome:bgi:

Awesome

:kewl:

Looking at it again I know why it came in last.

The running lights are painted backwards:laugha: No one knew whether is was comin or goin. Gotta get the paint back out.

Ya know... I saw that AFTER he glued them on

Very Nice, good detail....

Keep that one forever!!

A great idea.
Congrats

Addict is an understatement for your kid Brandon. He was pretty funny that day with that 28#er I dragged up over the guard rail. He was petting it and stuff. That was too much. I hope I have a kid like that some day.
