We had a blast this year with the Centennial Ward Family Pinewood Derby.
I had totally forgotten about the Pinewood Derby until the night before. So in less than 24 hours we put together what we could to race the next day. Maria and I cut and sanded it. The kids painted it. And then we taped on some 16 penny nails for weight and a cool Lego driver with 70's haircut.
We placed 5th out of 15 cars that night.
This pinewood derby had NO RULES so you had cars with remote control wheels, battery powered fans, and one guy had a CO2 cartridge on his.

CO2 powered
Everybody lost to this guy. I just kept taping on more nails with each run so I could beat most people. But didn't work with that guy's car.

Hey you made a new post! I just saw it on Google buzz and thought it was kind of long but now it makes sense. Haha pinewood derby's were always super fun.
You made it to just less than a year since your last post. That's just great. I've never been in a ward that lets everyone do Pinewood Derby but that would be fun.
Yay a post finally!!!!
