IMPORTANT: Plan to arrive before the race time so the car can be officially weighed and checked in - otherwise you may miss the race!

Bring: Your car. Snacks. It can be a long day so keeping kids hydrated and fed is important.

Each car races four times in different lanes on the track.  Prizes are awarded to the top four finishers per rank; each rank gets a prize for most creative design. The top finishers per rank are also moved into the Inter-Pack Championship where our best cars race against Pack 200’s best cars. This typically takes place after we complete all of our races. The track’s electronics and software can be a little temperamental.

We know that everyone’s schedules are little crazy these days and we do have situations when a Cub Scout cannot make the designated time due to other commitments. This is particularly true with the Inter-Pack Championship. If you are unable to make a race time but can get to the school to check a car in, please let Duncan know. He will check with all the winners on their availability for the Inter-Pack race later in the day. It’s a busy day for him so if you haven’t heard from him, please track him down!
