I'am with Mark Jones pinewood derby it's not just for the younger kids,
and not to cub scoutish.
You have not been to a North & South Springfield sections, and a
Southwest Division Pinewood derbys of the So.Mo. District you have missed
something special. The competition is serious in all age groups. Early
part of this year a girls car won the overall at the sectionals.
The boys from Straight Arrows to Challengers puts on serious races. Its
not just the older boys who have the faster cars 
either at the divisional pinewood derby I believe in the top ten there
was three cars from the B/SA age groups. Two of those buckaroos were from
my outpost one of them him and his Dad worked on the car only about 3
weeks and it was the First car they ever built, he won the buckaroo
class. Through the pinewood derby races some of the boys parents came and
because of what we did for those boys in all the age groups those parents
are now in church.
Just for the record the leaders have some fast cars too, and they do not
always win the overall.
