Owen's Pinewood Derby car

I don't know who was more excited about the Pinewood derby, Owen or Dad! Owen knew for sure he wanted the Batmobile but Dad wasn't sure he was going to be able to be at a saw, with his back hurting again, and help with the precise cuts that it required to make it look the way he would like it to look.  So we purchased a kit.  It still took a lot of sanding on Owen's part.  Dad taught him how to sand and spray paint.  They had to chisel out the bottom of the car to fit in the weights.  Owen carefully put the stickers on in the right places.  They had to make sure the wheels straight and smooth so they would glide. Now he just needs to race it!
