Yes, it was the Pinewood Derby for our Scout Troup. Chris insisted on spending hours, literally, cutting, sanding, weighing, lubing, painting, testing and building the coolest car for Kyle to race. He even got books and movies from the library and studied them intently before beginning. He insisted that Kyle watch him every second since it was "Kyle's car" - hehe!
Then the big competition night came and let's just say that the car that won the fastest car smoked Chris's car - oops - I mean Kyle's car, and was thrown together the night before by the scout - not the dad. Kyle's won "the best of show" - it was really neat looking which has to count for something.
Gotta love the scouting program!
