    Just keep your wheel gap between the hub and the body very small. That will counter it. You can also use a good after market axle. https://derbydad4hire.com/product-category/pinewood-derby-axles/

    If I were to add any of those classes would anyone else race them? By what I can see there weren't many cars in a lot of the classes.
