We have now been in Cub Scouts for a few years. Jackson has participated in two pinewood derby races, and we were prepared to do the same this year. (We even bought powdered graphite to lubricate the wheels), BUT here, they have LEGO derbys!!! Jackson loves Lego, so we certainly got behind this new adventure.
Jackson built his racer with Lego parts that he had. He ended up adding some coins for weight, by sliding them into the windows of his car. His Cubmaster called it the ‘PiggyBank Racer’!
Jackson won the first heat, but then his car went off the rails! The winners of the race this year tested their cars on the track in advance. We’ll be sure to do that next year!
