K,
I sent in one of my sons car, for a test and time run, to gather data to see how slow or fast we are and how far away we are from sub 3.0.
The car is based on are cub scouts pack rules. So I do not see a speed demon here, We are not allowed to cant or raise a wheel.
So I think Glenn will post a video or info.
This is are first time sending a car ever to anyone for a test / time run. We are looking for tips and info after the conclusion of the times / data / runs.
The scout rules has started to make it hard for us to go faster and so we need to get input so we can learn more.

Thanks, I'll add a tad more info. The car we sent was running 2.3905 on are test track. So this after the data and info come from the car, We can then compare to some degree. The fastest car we have runs 2.3902, so very little differance between the car that was sent in. My sons 09 council winner ran 2.42"0" (something i forget at the moment) on are test track. So this can also help tell us, if we are winning with luck also. Are goal is to be able to find another 1/10th with the pack rules in use. While not as neat or fancy as many of your guys awesome cars. Heres a pic of the car.    Sporty |

Thanks ACME,
Well the wheels are stuff are dirty from all the testing with the car.
The track is not as clean as I would like it to be or of a level quality. but its better than no track at all.
Yes getting a little excited to see how it does or does not do.
I'm guessing it might run 3.100 or something due to not being able to cant and some things per the scout packs rules.
What will just kill me if its just over 3.0 range and then you are like, Wow I was closer than we thought and ya know , if you ya just could find a little bit more or just spent more time, ect ect.
You know how that goes. If it actually does under 3.0 which I doubt it will, would like blow my mind away.
So I also want to take the moment and thank Glenn for taking the time to test it and see how it does for us.
