Racers

Brendan and Wyatt got to participate in their first Pine Derby Grand Prix last week. They bought their blocks of wood themselves and we scrambled to figure out how in the world to go about this task without the experience or the equipment. I am proud to say, that at the end of this, we all have both of those things now!

Brendan got 3rd place for speed and Wyatt, although he won 3 out of 4 races, didn't get to advance and continue racing. He did, however, win 4th place for design.

So cute these little growing boys.

Glad to see that the boys built them at home. Most of the sons of the dads that I work with bring the blocks to work and have them professionally machined, sanded, and airbrushed, including aerodynamic modeling with CATIA. so they are super fast and sleek. I don't believe in that, you should do it yourself with the things you have on hand. If you don't it is like cathing a fish on someone elese rod, its just not right.

Uncle bubba I love your comments....you are spot on! Brendan and Wyatt you are top notch race car builders and you will always be winners to me! Your cars look awesome but your smiling faces are what I love the most. Hugs
