The track will be assembled in the gym on 10/15/19 at 6:15 PM for anyone that would like to make a test run. Please let me know if you need assistance cutting out the body of your car. There are a few men in troop 1031 with bandsaws that would be happy to help.

Kit Purchase, RSVP, and Registration
In order to participate in the race, you must purchase a kit through Troop MS-1031. This ensures that all racers are using the same stock materials. To purchase a kit, click the CheddarUp link below. This link will also serve as an RSVP to the event so that we can get a headcount for food. You can purchase more than one car per trailman, if you wish to have a test vehicle, but only one car per trailman can be registered for the race.
A few weeks prior to the race, you will receive instructions with a link to register your car (name, make, model, etc.). We will also make information available at a later date regarding the race rules, and instructions on building a car.
