Time to retire from the Pinewood Derby

Growing up my dad was right in there helping us with our cars, great memories. So I was all excited to past the good time to my boys. Both of the boys got cars. So after work every night we would go out and work on the cars. Cutting sanding, painting. All of the tricks that my father taught me. It was the night of the race. We get to the school where the event was being held. All the cars. My boys was trash talking with all their friends. WHAT A LOAD OF CRAP!!! They lined the cars up for the race. Where was no weigh in. They didn't keep track of who won. When the night was over, everyone got a piece of paper stating what class they won. One of my boys won shinyest tires, the other won cleanist car. What the hell. But we still have memories and good times about building the cars. We still laugh about it. Don't want anybodys feels bads to get hurt. Everyones a WINNER! What a load of crap.

Wow, that’s a bunch of PC crap. Glad you could find the fun in all that. The one thing I don’t like about it is all the rule changes year to year. Last year all the cars were race and show, then this year they said you had to build a race only car and a show only car. So the kids just did the cars for race and still made them look cool for the fun of it and didn’t worry about show. Then the day of the race they found out that all the cars would be judged for show. Sure glad we didn’t try to build show cars to, we would have had 1st & 2nd place wrapped up and really pissed everyone off and it would have been the rules fault not ours.
