Rhett's Pinewood Derby 2015

Pinewood derby time again!! This year Dallin is too old so it was just Rhett participating from our family.  He painted his car orange and called it the Cheez It! His main goal was to get through the loops....he didn't care win or lose....he just wanted his car to make it through the loops at the end of the night! Funny boy!

 We have an amazing guy that brings this whole set-up of the track, speedometer and big screen. He had 25+ boys each race 8 times against each other plus go through the loops twice each all in under an hour.  That is my kind of pinewood derby!

 This is Rhett (camo jacket at the end of the track) watching his car go down for the first time.

 One of the things I LOVE is that he posts on the big screen whose car was the fastest each round! Rhett's won one of rounds and so he got his name on the big screen! 180.7 MPH! That is fast! Yay buddy! He got 8th overall.

and one picture with big brother Dallin who helped with the design hoping it would go through THE LOOPS! :)

And we finished the night WITH THE LOOPS! It worked! If you look close you can see the orange Cheez It shooting out of the loop....you can also see a green car crashing in it's loop.  That car was the one that got 1st place for speed that night....but it sure couldn't go through those loops like Rhett's could.  You couldn't wipe the smile off his face!! haha! Love it!
