How to go slow?

[cozybldr]

I am stealing an idea from another racer for a Cubmaster Special race. The idea is to build a car that will look fantastic, but barely cross the Finish Line. I assume we lighten up the weight and rough up the axles. Remember that it needs to cross the line, but just barely make it. The kids get a piece of candy for beating the Cubmaster. Ideas? I saw this over on the PDDR forum last year.

I would do a search on youtube for the turtle class races.

Made me laugh, ZZ. /images/boards/smilies/smile.gif

But, I think that the kids would not much like to see a car deploy a chute to let their car win... Based on the first PWD car my son and I made, light weight and no lube will get you to the finish line last.

If your car won't make it to the finish line, add graphite to just one axle. Repeat until it makes it.

The flaps are the reigning champions. You can see a pic of the pink pirate on the car pics section of my website. We need another one of those races.
