<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My eight year old son and I are building a Pine
Wood Derby car for the Cub Scout races. Does anyone know where the car should
balance? (or does it matter?) I will be adding about 2 to 2.5 oz. of weight to
the car to bring it to a maximum legal weight of 5 oz. There are different
opinions with the Dads. Some say the weights should be in the back to push the
car down the track and some say the front to pull the car down the track. I
think it should be some where in the back third. This is our third year of
races and we have done pretty well the previous years.(seconds but never a
first.) </FONT></DIV>
