Re: District Race Ready or not
Well I guess it is back to the drawing boards for next year. We made it to the second round but were eliminated there. We did better than any of the other cars from our Pack but nowhere near a top finish. Oh well we had fun and got some quality time together and that is more important than a trophy ...

Re: District rules question
Parrot the only thing I see you can't/ shouldn't do within your rules is replace the body. You could however rework it's design so long as it was the same base. I realize it is a little late for these comments as your race is this morning and I doubt you will be doing anything this morning other tha...

District Race Ready or not
Well tomorrow morning is the big day. We spent most of tonight making sure our alignment was right and as perfect as we could get it to. During some of my tweaks I busted some wood out from the right rear axel slot :x A little epoxy and a couple quick prayers and we were back in business. After we f...

Re: Derby ethics question
I think you will find that this guy is the exception. I can't imagine many people taking on the position of Cubmaster to stroke one's own ego. As for the "biker" thing mentioned above, I'm still a biker, and a Cubmaster and a Father, and a Husband, and if I do say so myself an all around g...

Re: My work in progress, cars
I like it. I just got word that the district will be holding a camp flag contest at our camporee in a few weeks, it has a pirate theme, soon as I saw that bells went off in my head. Do have the image in a jpeg or something that I could (clearing throat) "borrow" it from you?

Re: Race Came and Went
Dang wish the timing were better, all of us TN boys could get together for a race. We have our District race the 29th at Hickory Hollow mall. Arrgus if you want to be taken back to "the day" come watch, we still use that old wooden track with the fancy light that goes off to tell you which...

Re: Derby ethics question
My Pack is chartered by a public school, and many others in this area are as well. Actually I should say by the school's PTO / PTA.

Re: Derby ethics question
As a new Cubmaster myself let me throw in my two cents. First I have "the book" and have read it, yes it is a resource, like many others, but it isn't the bible. I have also been to Training, again another resource and helpful but isn't the end all. What your Cubmaster seems to lack is lea...

Re: Another Season Come and Gone....
We run double elimination as well. What I didn't get was my son raced the Pack champion and won, yet somehow ended up in 4th place??? I am going to suggest some changes for next year, not sure how far I will get as the man who has been putting on the races has done it for 35 years.
