Each scout gets a chance to race their pinewood car they constructed down the huge 3 lane electronic wooden track to see whose car is fastest. It is a timeless event and one of the many highlights of the scouting year.
Clockwise: 3rd place winner Christopher Fazio, 2nd place winner Brady Walsh and 1st place winner Nolan Price! Congratulations boys!!!
