Pinewood Derby Car Design

THE WEDGE TURBO adds a racy twist to the classic wedge design. With ease of building and top performance, THE WEDGE TURBO is a great choice for new builders.

In addition to the car kit and basic hand tools, you will need the following supplies to build THE WEDGE TURBO:

3/8" or 25/64" Brad Point or Forstner drill bit (hardware store item)

Coping saw or another type of fine saw

Tungsten: 3-1/2 ounces of tungsten cylinders and tungsten disks for trim weight. This is a available in a Tungsten Weight Kit (part 8104)

6" of 3/8" dowel rod

1/16" gold pinstriping was used to customize the car in the photo

The extended wheel base can be created by either cutting new axle slots with two hacksaw blades, or by drilling axle holes with the Pro-Body Tool. Instructions and templates are provided in the Car Plans 3 booklet.
