Re: What do you think ? rules / regs/ building

"THE BOOK" ! Oh My! Your telling us that there is an Official Cubmobile Rule Book!? And how, where is it available...? I truly had no idea! Our Local Rules Were Made up simply out of neccesity, common sense, safety, and as much simplicity as possible mixed in there! LOL! If it is in anothe...

Re: What do you think ? rules / regs/ building

Re: What do you think ? rules / regs/ building

I like that! It's simple... Yet, considering the several boys that took a "Jhonson and Jhonson" break, i could see how it would be a worth while change! With our Classes, that i had discussed with some others, it would have to go into an "Open" Class Race, as it isn't a duplicate...

Cubmobile Kits ...

Well i ran the left over Cubmobile kits i had on ebay, and there were about 75 hits of people checking them out...maybe 50 of them were me! LOL!

Re: What do you think ? rules / regs/ building

YES! I had asked about getting ahold of the BSA Dept. that handles the Production of the Pine Wood Derby's, and their source of the "kits"...Yet, that was two years ago, and i have found that if i don't press everything to get them (or anyone that's plate is full already) to get back with ...

Re: What do you think ? rules / regs/ building

All you might have to do to go District is ask your local Scout Executive to invite the district Packs and Troops, if the Boy Scouts don't race, ask them to be involved it the event ...run the show! Anyway, thats how ours got started, in reference to getting coverage for insurance through the bsa um...

Re: What do you think ? rules / regs/ building
