Pinewood Derby on the Radio

Post by gpraceman »

Today I was listening to K-Love radio while I was working, like I do all the time, and I hear Kelli Caldwell talking about her son's recent Pinewood Derby. They made a cute fire engine. Though, it was the slowest in the pack, so she asked for listeners to call in with some tips.

I did manage to get through and let her know about Derby Talk being a great place to find tips.

Also from her description of the race, it sounded like they were running my software. :mrgreen:

I haven't heard the conversation on the radio, but that is quite OK with me. It is cool hearing some of the people that were put on the air.

She just gave an update on the radio. Her son also is in Awana and they just had their Grand Prix. She said she took all of the listener tips and they were able to make a more competitive car. It didn't win, but it also didn't finish last, like during their pack race.
