Car Inspection Go/No-Go Gauge
Pinewood Derby Car Inspection Gauge

Provides fast inspection of dimensional compliance of cars used in
Shape N Race, Awana Grand Prix, Pinewood Derby and other similar races. 

Car Dimension Checking
Underbody Clearance Checking
Start Pin Checking
Features

Car Dimension Checking - If the car fits fully inside the gauge, then the car meets the standard dimensional limits (max 3” height, max 2-3/4” width, max 7” length, and min 1-3/4” wheel spacing).  If rules allow a height greater than 3”, then the height checker can be omitted.

Underbody Clearance Checking - The Clearance Checker is 3/8" high. If the bottom of the car rubs on the Clearance Checker, then it does not have the proper clearance. A slot in the back of the box lets you visullay check the clearance to see what part of the car is rubbing.

Wheelbase Checking - If you have restrictions on the car wheelbase, marks can be made on the back panel, at either the top edge or on the inspection slot, for comparison against the car wheelbase.

Start Pin Checking –If the front of the car extends past the leading edge of the start pin then it will have an unfair advantage. 

 

 

Kit comes with simple assembly instructions.  Small flat head and phillips head screwdrivers and wood glue are required.  Wood can be sanded and painted, if desired.
