Ok, I now definately( as ProQuest says I do) have the PINEWOOD BUG. These are my two latest creation that I hope to have finished for June race and my first two entries at PWDRACING. I still have to finish wheels and axles and align, but I'm close. So take a look and let me know what you think. I modeled this one after a 34 Ford sedan delivery. Don't have a name yet: And this one I modeled after a 30 Ford model A. No name yet either: I hope they run good, but a little apprehensive as this is my first attempt at needles. Hope you enjoy, as I enjoyed building them. See Ya, Beakerboysracing

Those cars are way cool !! I honestly couldn't tell you which one I like more !! Just so you know, there is no cure for the "pinewood derby bug", so you're gonna have to do like the rest of us and live with it ;D !!

Thanks everone for the comps. I am really please at how they turned out.
Tory, Not quite sure if I will be able to make Bluegrass, I already have 3 trips planned for this summer, RA nationals next week, vacation 4th of July week, and Snapon Tools event in July in Vegas. I am probably going to be a little tapped on funds, but if anyone out there would be willing to stage them for me I will be glad to ship them to whoever if they will run them for me. Any takers? Was kinda hoping for Peachtree Derby as that is in my home town.
Thanks Scott Beakerboysracing

In an effort to save some shipping for those who can't make it to the Bluegrass Nationals - I'll be there to transport cars back to MN for the September race the following weekend.
I'm sure we can figure out a place to ship them to ahead of time to get them entered at Bluegrass too! If you want to ship them to MN before hand, we plan on leaving on the 28th of August.
