Pinewood Champ 2008

Jakob, with a little help from his dad, made this car over the last month or so.
With this car - he won 1st place in his Packs pinewood derby (by a car length!). It was a great time, he enjoyed building and racing the car and defeated the two-time champion from the previous years!. Way to go Jakob!!!

A photo-finish of one of the championship heats!. His car was raced at least 12 times and won each and every heat in the races he was in.

Heres some Video of one of his races!!!

Thanks pinewood pro for the weights and graphite!
