2012 Pinewood Derby Information
Below you can download all the files and fliers that have been put out for the Council Pinewood Derby being run on April 9th at Scout-O-Rama. There is a flier that compares the old (1999 mold) and new (2009 mold) style wheels and a page that details what you cannot do with the wheels. There is a Council 2011 rules file and a guide on what you can do with the block and the axles. Please check into these in detail if you are planning on running a car at either the District or Council races. If anyone has any questions, check with Kevin. Please note that the District and Council races are only open to Scouts, no siblings or adult cars.
