Pinewood Derby Rule reminder
Just a reminder. One of the Pinewood Derby rules is that all 4 wheels need to touch the track. It is not allowed to intentionally set your wheels up so that only 3 of the 4 wheels are touching.
Some Pinewood Derby websites recommend trying to do this, but it is not in fair play as there is 25% less friction. Now the placement of the axels and wheels is not perfect but if the inspector notices a wheel is consistently not touching the ground you will be asked to fix it prior to the race.
Please do your best, we do not want unhappy scouts with a disqualified car.
Thanks!
