Ian's annual Pinewood Derby took place on a Saturday, thankfully, so Dad could be around to help. In order to curb some of the competition and troubles often associated with this event, the Stake leaders decided to allot a 3-hour time period for making the cars, decorating them, and racing them. The boys got to choose one of 3 basic designs so when they arrived the cars were pre-cut and ready for sanding.
Ian was a bit bummed he didn't get to paint it (they had to use markers because there wasn't time for paint to dry). However, he decided he could take it home and elaborate more later. The duct tape was holding on the weights.
Ian's car, ready to race!
He was excited his car was speedy!
Here is a close-up of the car parked in his parking garage.

Nice car! I like the stake's idea... seems like it would help out with some of the stereotypical derby problems. Way to go, Ian!
