Christian's Car is the black one in the #1 spot. Aaron's car is the red and tan one is the #2 spot.
Our Ward did a Pine Wood Derby competition yesterday for the Scouts and also did a chili cook-off competition along with it. We had a really hard time deciding what to do because Christian had a basketball game at the same time as the Pinewood Derby. He had spent a lot of time on his car this year with Aaron helping him. He knew that it was going to be his last competition with the cub scouts. But he also wanted to not let down his basketball team by not being there. So he went and did the weigh-in of his car and then went to the basketball game. He let Meliah race his car for him. Well, we got back to the Stake Center and Aaron said he had gotten 1st place. I asked him how he came up with the shape and style of car he designed and he said that he had raced all of his hotwheels and the fastest one was the one he copied. I thought that was very cute and scientific. He was sad to have missed the races but the fact that he won made up for it all. Aaron also won with his car in the stock car races (separately judged from the scouts). Thank you Tyler and Amanda for taking some pictures for me at the derby!

Congratulations boys! Was that the bat-mobile? That one has been found to be the fastest in our own experimentations as well!
That's awesome! How clever to base the design on a Hot Wheels. : D
Sweet Car!!! ;0)
