Pinewood Derby
Colten's pinewood derby was Friday night. He was so excited to race his "Haunted Race Truck." It was originally supposed to have flames painted on it, but that turned to a ghost and he thought the drips from the windows were really cool and looked creepy, so we said what the heck, it's his car and left it like that. He ended up in a tie for 3rd place which we were all excited about. They had several heats where three cars raced at a time. The first pic is from the first heat. His truck is in the middle and placed first. However the next two heats he placed 3rd and he wasn't very happy about that. Fortunately he got one more 1st place and a mix of 2nd and 3rds and got enough points to tie for 3rd place. I think he did great for his first year and I'm pretty sure he's ready to build a faster car next year.
