I have no secrets either because you guys taught me everything. Everything I know is already documented...not in my notes but here. There is a lot of sifting through info that needs to be done though to use this site effectively and that takes time.
Last year prior to our District race I offered a workshop to help get our racers prep and possibly get faster. I showed them how we smooth and polish our axles and wheels, how we weight our cars and even LB's alignment method. I had a powerpoint and several tuning boards with mock cars with bent axles to show the effects of twisting the axle. Only 7 people showed up. I even shared my oil with my entire den prior to the Pack race though a few didn't take it. There were some that joked that I was giving them oil with sawdust in it.
I offered to do it again this year but the Pack Admin decided they would rather I just offer a workshop for beginners building for the first time. So, we'll (my son and I) show how we shape our cars, weight them, and align them. I'll show how we start the build early so that my son and I can work together without time stresses. How I show him to use different tools. I'll show some homemade tools I made for finding round wheels and for cutting the K-House groove. Nothing fancy, just basic stuff. This is our last year so I would be fine with a den asking me to come in and show them what we know.
