Science Project -

difference in the speed of Pinewood Derby cars (location
of weights, sanding and waxing wheels, location
of axles, amount of graphite, etc.)? I only want
to test legal modifications so the test results
can be used in real races. See Official Rules
Question 2: If I use what I learn from these tests,
can I make a car faster than the fastest car I made
in Cub Scouts? (10/15/2005) |
