I came across this site, probably like many others. My girlfriends little boy (6) will be having his first derby next month.
So I started researching for speed tips and tricks. I have a hobbiest background as my parents owned and opperated a hobby store and RC track for almost 20 years. In addition I also have a CNC background, fabrication experience, and race real cars. That last one lead me straight to the rule book. Gotta know the rules in order to bend them
So, we are allowed extended wheel base, 3 wheel cars. NO mods to the wheels. No graphite at the track due to past issues and mess apparently. I'm going to post another thread in the Ask the Pros section on interpretation of the lubrication rule.
Looking forward to learning all that I can!
