Thanks everyone on the forum!
Our Pack held it's 2010 PWD yesterday. What a long day. What fun.
We've used a lot of what we've learned from this forum and from sharing with each other to build some very fast cars and help people along the way.
A build class, a work-shop, a trial day....
No issues this year, all cars checked in relatively easy without the need for any major mods at the last minute in the repair area. We saw a lot of underweight cars which is a lot easier to deal with than over-weight.
We had an overabundance of volunteers...food for the participants and their families.
Started late but finished before the planned time
Oh yeah!
My son (and I) had a great day yesterday. He finished first in an extremely competitive Webelos Den (past 5 defending pack champs) and first in the Pack...on to Districts!
Thanks Again
Thanks Everyone
