Pinewood Derby UK

We must be one of only a handful of Scout Groups to have run a Pinewood Derby in the UK. I've no idea why it has not taken off here, but it is extremely popular in the USA.
We built our own track, sourced some kits and got 25 participants for our first Derby. Below is a picture of the badge participants got. I also made some Pinewood Derby trophies that double as a stand for the winning cars.
If you are interested in running something similar, have a look at this site: www.blockcars.co.uk
