We have calculated that Scott will participate in 15 Pinewood Derby races over the next decade plus. Each boy gets to race 3 years in Cub Scouts as a Wolf, Bear and Weblos. Bradley's official racing days are over but this year was Bryson's first. I'm not sure who was more excited--Bryson or Scott! They didn't get started on the car as early as others but in one week they built one fast race car! If you have boys and haven't seen "Down and Derby" you need to see it. My house didn't get quite that chaotic--but a close second. They did take the car wrapped in towels in a box on Racing Day. It was heard to be said that they should give the awards out during Priesthood Meeting the next day since some of the dads went a little crazy.
Here is Bryson and car Pre-Race time. It turns out there is a whole Pinewood Derby Market of tricks and secrets to make your car perform the very best. A little scary and hilarious to watch the whole event unfold!
Bryson's car ended up racing great! He won 1st in his Den so I guess that means all the trade secrets and insanity paid off. Can't wait until next year. . .

Nathan's Pinewood Derby is in May. He'll have to talk to Bryson to get all the tricks for winning! Congrats, Bryson!
