Go Legoman! Go!

Jared's Cub Scout Pack had their Pinewood Derby last Saturday. Previous to the event, Jared spend hours researching and designing his car. He and Chris looked on-line for ideas, but ultimately Jared settled on making a rule-compliant car made out of Legos. The wheels and axles are from the kit and fit into a thin slice of the wood from the kit. Then, he made a Lego shell to go around the thin peice of wood. Chris helped one of the boys make his car, it's on the left and Jared's is on the right.
Here are all scouts getting ready to race their cars.

And patiently waiting for their awards. Jared won the best engineered award for his ingenuity and design.

Good job Legoman!
