Car weights

[down4derby]

I agree....I hate patents. In large scale they have become tools wealthy people and corporations use to steal and manipulate ideas and IP. Trademarks are very much the same. There's no real money in this sport, so the IP trolls don't bother with it.

Sooo, Joe is a patent troll!

Ummm. You could answer the question or I can answer it for you.

I @Ember have never raced in a league and I have nothing to offer to this hobby.

Have you even the faintest notion what deriving your self worth from racing little wooden cars against grown men says about you?

No...Joe is a patent holder, or are you too dumb to know the difference ?

In order to be a patent troll would you not have to be a patent holder as well?

Before I answer your question... let's get back to my original question that you conveniently did not answer. Are you the first person to ever have the idea of putting weights in, on ,or around the wheels of a Pinewood Derby car?

Inside the wheel cavities attached to the body, yes!

How can you be so sure?

Actually people had attached cubes in that area before, however not to fill the entire void or block air. Pretty different.

Would you be so kind as to point to the patent Joe trolled ?

 

[down4derby]

How can you be so sure?

I know where your going with this, however you can say that about any Idea.

So you stole their idea and tweaked it a bit?

No, just being honest. My idea is quite a bit different.

Funny how people do that isn't it.

please explain

 

[Ember]

How so...did they not attach their weights to the body, were they not inside the wheel cavity area?

Where I messed up was telling Joe my idea in the first place. Of course, he says he thought I was someone else the first time we conversed on chat.

An airsheild weight is quite a bit different than 2 cubes.
