The 2023 Pinewood Derby is done and it is certainly one for the history books! We raced 75 cars, awarded 43 trophies and demonstrated tremendous Scout Spirit as we dealt with audio issues at the start and track issues at the end.
For those that weren't there, the track timer malfunctioned at the start of the Siblings race. So we had to go "old school" and use our cameras to record each heat to see who won. The races were so close that you couldn't determine the order without slo-mo replay. But everyone was a good sport and had a lot of fun.
Here are the results for this year's Pinewood Derby. Due to the track/software issues, we didn't capture the winners of the Siblings or Pack 113 Championship race:

1st place: Daniel Segal

We were then joined by Atomic Allen who put on a fantastic Science, not magic!, show for the scouts.
