Haha oh I remember the days of pine wood derby.
One issue with an XJ style is you don't have the aerodynamics on your side..

Wow, thats great! This thing brought back memories! I tried my best to find the two I made as a kid and couldn't. Now I may have to go to the Hobby store and see if I can find one to put together! LOL!
