RememberSchiff 3671 Posted April 23, 2017 Share Posted April 23, 2017 It is common for packs to run separate races with an entry fee for non-Cubs (mostly Dads) usually with the same BSA weight/size rules, but I am seeing more unrestricted races which are fun and lucrative. CO2 gas propellants, soda/beer can Physics club challenges (STEM groups,high school/colleges) altered track Any packs out there running unrestricted class races? How is it working out?

ParkMan 1293 Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 I've seen a few unrestricted races happening. I've not seen it done as a fundraiser. Mostly just something tacked on to the normal derby & just for fun. Link to post Share on other sites
RememberSchiff 3671 Posted May 1, 2017 Author Share Posted May 1, 2017 (edited) I googled Adult Pinewood Derby and had numerous finds. The event itself is usually official while some of the races may be less so. The World Famous Stumptown 40 - $30/car http://www.stumptown40.com/ Adult Pinewood Derby at Iowa Brewing Co in Cedar Rapids - $50 entry includes 2 free drinks http://storage.hawkeyebsa.org/event/docs/1664/2017_adult_pwd_fundraiser_rc1.pdf Woodcraft in Nashville is hosting an Adult Pinewood Derby on Fathers' Day which includes fathers vs sons races and a hardwood race. I wonder if entrants can cut and assemble car there? https://www.evensi.us/adult-pinewood-derby-woodcraft-of-nashville/208922638 Edited May 1, 2017 by RememberSchiff Link to post Share on other sites
5yearscouter 52 Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 The only fundraising we did at pinewood derby races is the Webelos would get pizza cheap and they'd sell pizza, water, soda, and things like little Debbie snacks. Any profit would help the den go to webelos summer camp. That's of course, not what you mean. lol Link to post Share on other sites
