Race Day

Hayden's pinewood derby race was February 11th. Each car

ran 9 heats and they averaged all 9 runs and compared

each car's average to determine the winner. Hayden's car

was pretty fast, averaging about 200-202 mph (adjusted

to size). Trophies were awarded for the top 3, and although

I didn't see the final average numbers, by seeing his speed

after each individual heat, I'm guessing he finished fourth or

fifth, just missing out on the hardware. Oh well, we both had

a great time making his car!


Lined up and ready to roll!








Very tight race - neck and neck!





Hayden anxiously awaits the finish. (This was a different

heat than the pics above, which was a much closer finish).
