Pinewood Derby Car Judging

[dundalk83]

Like others have posted, I thought up awards for every car, including parents who raced borrowed cars ( I called that one the GT-350H Rental Racer Award). Usually the night before I took picutres of every car and noted who built each one. Then I made up a certificate that was unique to the car. For instance one kid had a racer reminiscent of the old pickups that had the front end of a van. He also fashioned two surfboards for the bed. Of course this racer got the "Cowabunga Dude" award. One sibling simply had an uncarved block with wheels that she painted to resemble a school bus, that one won the "Board of Education" award, etc. Have some fun the award names and the kids will love'em.
