Pinewood Derby Q&A

Pinewood Derby Track Knowledge Base

Why do heavier pinewood derby cars go down the track faster than lighter ones? I thought this went against a law of gravity, that everything is affected by gravity at the same speed except for considering air resistance. Pinewood derby cars are shaped the same and should have the same air resistance.
fast Pinewood derby car? my class is doing a pinewood derby with practically NO rules so we can use whatever we like. damage other peoples cars, project things, use propellers, has to be under 10 pounds and stay on the track. any ideas?
I need to find a website that allows you to determine a racing schedule for the pinewood derby.? Last year I found a website that allowed you to put in how many lanes your track has (3) and how many drivers you would have participating (around 30). It was wonderful. I am running our packs pinewood derby on March 22nd, and have not been able to find that site or another like it. I only remember it was free and it told you exactly which car(s) to race each time.
