My Latest Creation
Ok this is off topic but I had to. Me and my boy just finished our first ever Pinewood Derby car. He wanted to make a truck like mine (proud moment). So here it is. The stuff sticking out of the top are carbide drill tips (for weight). We weighed in and had some trial runs tonight, we were 0.2 seconds slower than the fastest car. I made some adjustments tonight, tomorrow is the big race. Wish us luck.

RE: My Latest Creation
there are "kits" that you can get that produce Fender flairs (flares?) and such to reduce the resistence over the wheels... I imagine if you look hard enough you could even find a "Ram" kit... might cost a bit, but would be pretty cool (plus, you could put it on your dash or something when you're done racing!)
