Dale,
Your cars are some of the most beautiful coolest looking cars that I have seen. One thing that I am curious about, if you don't mind sharing, is how you make your labels. Have you thought about doing a video on making labels. Lord knows we all could use some improvement in the aesthetics department, and a how to video would really help us out.
Thanks, Tony

Well, my friend Jeff and family did really well at the Pack race today. His two boys each won first place for their rank, and first and second overall for the pack. Kyle, the oldest, who has autism, was pack champion, and set the track record twice!!! And "Autism Awareness" won first place in open class for Jeff's wife Jamie. All in all a very good day for their family! Congrats guys, and we'll see you at district!!!!!

Some of the racers are on teams, and I am not sure how that all works. The NPWDRL team racing is independent of individual racing. Here's Some information from DD4H forums: There will be 12 teams with the participants drafted onto teams. 12 captains will be chosen and then a draft order will be determined. The draft will be a snake draft. There will be 4 events. May 5th, June 30th, Sep 1st, Championship Nov 3rd (for the top 8 teams). The events will be separate from the individual events. Cost: $30 per person. That will cover all the events. You will have to cover shipping costs by providing a PREPAID return label to affix to the box. This does not mean a hand written, it is a printed label from USPS.com. The entry fees will cover trophies and prizes to the champions. I will donate product to give as prizes. The entry fees will also cover running the event, setting up a website and posting results and videos of the events. Event structure: It will be a bracket (NCAA Style) setup where teams will face off head to head with the winner moving on. A match will consist of each teams cars getting 2 runs in each lane and total lowest time of all cars will win the match. Winner will move on. Pairings for the event will be drawn from a hat to make it fair for all teams. Each team will receive 10 points for each match victory for the first round and 15 points for a second round going up 5 points with each higher round victories and 25 bonus points for winning the event. The point total will be tracked to see who qualifies for the championships. Classes: Street Stock, Street Pro, Eliminator, Unlimited Team requirements: Each team will enter 1 car for each class. The cars MUST be painted and decaled with team colors and logos. This is a team effort so all members need to be involved in the build process. The idea behind this is for the team cars to be separate from individual cars.

In June was my son Tyler's council pinewood derby and we did really well, winning second place overall out of 245 racers. The father/son team that beat us this year lost to us in 2010. After the race, I had a really good long conversation with the dad, and he shared some innovative (I think) ideas on aerodynamics. Something we hope to test and maybe incorporate into future cars. Anyway, all in all it was a great day for Tyler with lots of friends and family there to see him race. He's the kid with the BIG SMILE second from right in the picture below. More pics of the council race can be seen here:s1099.photobucket.com/albums/g383/CygnusTeamRacing/NSC%20PWD%20Race%202011%20-%201/?albumview=slideshow
