Rules

All the BSA (Revell) pinewood derby kits come with some basic rules in them. However, the rules are not very specific and leave a ton of room for interpretation.  If you have been in charge of a race in the past you know how many problems this can cause. So what we have here is three different rule sets taking from league and national races.(Strict,Medium,Open) It is not posted in these rule sets but approved lubrication for wheels is open to graphite, and oil. If you have not tried the oil's available you are missing out. No more graphite mess! For the best and fastest on the market see our link section.
