Pinewood derby is a racing event where scouts, siblings and parents build and race small, gravity-powered cars made from a kit that includes a block of pine wood, plastic wheels, and metal axles. The kits are simple, but the cars can be highly customized through sanding, painting, and adding weight to comply with specific rules like maximum speed, weight, width, and length for racing and design competitions! Showcase your creativity and participate in Pack 997's annual Pinewood Derby!
