GMC Motorhome Derby
GMC Motorhome Derby
I ran across this website in some random derby googling - a GMC Motorhome club has their own derby race! http://gmcmi.com/pinewood-derby/ I wrote to see if I can get ahold of one of their cool custom kits.

I've had a couple of guys running this type of race buying my software. Talking to one of them, they look to take the race nationwide. Even the older generation loves to race wooden creations!

Looking at their rules, a max weight of 1 pound. Wow!

Maybe do a Dead Car Brands themed race (Hummer, Saturn, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Plymouth, AMC, ...).Kenny wrote:I'm still hoping someone will come along with a _(choose one)____ Derby

On the Pinto, just hope it doesn't get rear ended Though, that would make for some cool special effects. Just have a fire extinguisher handy.

They are known as orphan cars. I'd buy a '51 Kaiser Henry J kit...gpraceman wrote:Maybe do a Dead Car Brands themed race (Hummer, Saturn, Pontiac, Oldsmobile, Plymouth, AMC, ...).
