Pine Wood Derby

The Young Men in our ward wanted to have a pine wood derby without all of the rules and regulations. They invited any men in the ward that would like to compete to come also. So of course George jumped right in. To begin with they built the mouse trap car, for Tayler. It is pretty cool, they had fun building it. Then George decided to do one, so he took the motor off of his old remote control car and rigged it up to work with a pinewood derby wood block. I didn't get to see the fun, but I know that the Young Men were really noisy that night :) George's car was such a hit that he ran his over and over and then once going up the track backwards. Tayler's car goes by winding up a string on the axel and then the snap from the mouse trap propels it down the track. He did really well also, he did wind it too tight a couple of times and bent the snappy thing, George said in all Tayler was in third place.
