fotoscout 15 Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 Yesterday we ran our Pinewood Derby. Again, it was a great success. Bless that software!!!! The Pack is now ready to add a Siblings and Friends race and, an Unlimited category to the agenda for next year. We anticipate running the Sibs & Friends race under the same set of rules that we use for the Scouts. The Unlimited Category needs some thought. It would be nice to allow it to be truly unlimited, but we dont think thats this would be in anyones best interest. Does anyone have a set of rules that they have used for this type of race? The only thing we have agreed on so far is that there should be no propulsion device. Daaaaa! Weight and length seem to be what we are stuck on. Thanks, Foto. Link to post Share on other sites
beasties mom 10 Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 that is our only rule for our unlimited. Which I lose every year but have the best time making my car. Link to post Share on other sites
EagleInKY 14 Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 Our rule is that it cannot damage the track (we've seen some come close), it cannot be too tall to fit under the finish line. As for length, the starting area doesn't allow it to be too long. Link to post Share on other sites
