The Bear den had spent the last two den meetings cutting, sanding, adding lead weight, and painting to prepare for the event. We had to pool resources as none of us individually had all the tools needed to build the cars, and everyone was pleased with the finished cars.
Today was the Cub Scout pinewood derby in Pack 3455. Most of the boys attended with their cars ready for racing and judging. All we needed with a quick puff of graphite in each wheel and we were ready to race! The pack has an amazing track made of aluminum and equipped with timing sensors that feed car race times directly into software on a laptop. It was an truly an impressive setup.
In the end, Joseph finished 2nd in the Bear den and 7th overall. He very much enjoyed the experience and is looking forward to racing again next year.
