Pinewood Derby Super Tune Up Kit
This kit teaches the
science behind what makes a pinewood derby racer go faster.
The 24-page book is full of information, including race
rules, building tips, and sportsmanship. Includes a
car scale.
Included in the kit
Car scale - uses 25 quarters as a counter weight (not included).
Although this scale is accurate, it may not be as accurate
as the scale used to weigh your car before the race. We
recommend using at least a few of the stick-on weights that
are included in this kit to make your car balance on this scale.
If your car is over weight, one of the weights can easily be
removed.
8 stick-on weights with adhesive
backing - .125 oz each for a total of one oz.
Most Pinewood Derby cars require more weight than this to
reach the maximum 5 oz but these are ideal for fine tuning
your car's weight. We recommend that they be applied
to the upper rear area of your car.
