Pinewood Derby Links

Darin McGrew's Home Page has a great deal of information that he maintains.

This zip file contains several text files plus a compiled basic program that can be used to create heats for a round-robin type of race using Stearns-Borom Method. It attempts to let each scout race against either other on alternating tracks. It is an alternative to double elimination, that many packs prefer. Pinewood Derby Info Zip File.
