Ive written this book to make it as easy as possible to make a winning pinewood derby car. Most of the techniques can be done with simple hand tools. I wanted to come up with some new techniques that any child could do. I also came up with some new ideas that an adult can help with. I started working with my son on his first pinewood derby car when he was five. We went to the library and found some great books. A lot of the ideas are very advanced for a five-year-old, so we thought we could figure out some new ideas on our own. It took five years and a lot of trial and error, but he finally won a first place trophy in our pinewood derby race. Now we can share some of these ideas to help you make the fastest car you can. Other books cover a lot of details on every aspect of pinewood derby. We are trying to help with some more new easy ideas. Always check to see if your race has rules added to the standard pinewood derby rules that come in your pinewood derby car box. I dont want you to use some of these techniques and have your car disqualified. Finally, always read and follow the safety rules that come with the tools and machines you will use on your project.

We describe our experience as a Cub Scout son and father team building our first car together for the Pinewood Derby races sponsored by the Boy Scouts of America. The car we built, a stylized 1:24 scale model of the Maserati 250F in which Juan Manuel Fangio won the 1957 World Grand Prix Championship, took top honors in our local pack Pinewood Derby in February 2008 and also won all of its heats in our District Pinewood Derby in April 2008. We develop a mathematical model of optimizing the mass of the vehicle, in which the objective function is to maximize speed while minimizing cost. In our model, weight translates directly to horsepower, and concentration of mass is critical. The main findings of this paper are that, to build a successful Pinewood Derby racing car:1) Horsepower should be maximized2) Wheel friction should be minimized3) Aerodynamic drag should be minimized.

¿Jeremy, you can¿t tell how fast a car is going to race just by its appearance,¿ lectures his dad. But Jeremy¿s heart sinks as he wonders how his racecar will ever compete with the sleeker models designed to win the reigning title at the Pinewood Derby. This is the story of a young boy entering an annual scouting event, with limited skills and equipment, who along the way learns a valuable life lesson. Just because you are not equipped with the 'right¿ tools and assistance, does not mean you cannot succeed. From the moment that Jeremy receives his block of wood to carve, to the point when the racetrack slats are lowered, Jeremy embarks on a journey of self -discovery that results in the decision to race his car against all odds. The reader will find himself staring down the long, narrow tracks with a singular, sloping hill, cheering loudly for the underdog that lies within us all.

In 1979 I took my first physics class in high school. I had always been pretty good in science and math, but physics was the perfect marriage of both. It explained everything in my mind. Sure, I had a basic understanding gravity, friction, drag, etc., but physics allowed you to precisely measure and calculate those fundamental properties.So, here we are over 30 years later. My son joined Cub Scouts as a Tiger Cub and we were exposed to one of the biggest annual physics experiments in the world.... The Pinewood Derby.Over the next four years, my son and daughter experienced a lot of success in the Pinewood Derby at both the pack and district level. In my son's final year of competition, he won the den, pack, and district races as well as a race that was held at the National Scouting Museum in Irving, Texas. I thought that was it for the Pinewood Derby, but I was wrong....At my kid's elementary school, fifth grade is the year that they all participate in the science fair. My wife and I were dreading the upcoming projects since we have twins. Then one day at work, a fellow engineer told me about how he and his son did a physics based science fair project. Bang! The light went on in my head and I thought, "Wow, why don't we do a project based on the physics of the Pinewood Derby." I pitched the idea to my kids and they were both all in.The problem with the science fair project was to figure out what we were trying to prove. We pretty much already knew how to build a winning car, so all we could really do is show how to make the car slower. So, that's what we did. We built a control/test car that applied all the best practices that we had learned along the road. Then we changed the mass, center of gravity, friction and drag to show how each of these attributes effected the performance of the car.My kids worked really hard on this project and by the end, really had a grasp of why the cars they had helped to build every year were so successful. It wasn't just luck, it was physics. The project came out great. I mean really great. They won their school's science fair and placed 2nd in the city wide district science fair. Personally, I would take those two victories over all the Pinewood Derby victories combined.As the project came to a conclusion, I came to a realization. There is a lot of info on the web about how to build a winning car. What you can't find is experimental data that quantifies the effect of not following the winning recipes. In other words, what is the sacrifice if you don't follow all the known speed secrets.This booklet attempts to quantify the sacrifices you can expect if you don't optimize the weight, center of gravity, drag and friction. The data my kids collected for their elementary science fair experiment will show you just how important each of these attributes are and what you can expect if you decide to cut corners.I also picked up a couple of speed secrets along the way. I will provide you with what I think are some really good tips on lubrication, polishing of axles and wheels, drag and friction reduction, weight placement and adjustment. In particular, the approach we used to polish and lubricate the axles and wheels is superior in my opinion.What I really hope is that this book helps you figure out quickly how to build a car that is very competitive without wasting a bunch of time on the web. Enjoy, and happy racing!
