And the winner is....

ZANE!  Yes - finally - Zane won 1st place overall at his Pinewood Derby!  That had been a goal since day one....with Daddy (former Pinewood Derby champ himself) researching all the best ways to gain speed, Zane spent hours and hours sanding, painting, polishing, and polishing, and polishing - until the car was perfect.  And the work paid off.  With a blistering top speed more than 0.2 seconds faster than the next fastest car, it was a dream come true for Zane.

I am so proud of all the work he put into it and so enjoyed seeing Bennett and Zane spending time together...but I am especially glad that Bennett made Zane do the vast majority of the work.  Aside from using the scary band saw, Zane built that car from the ground up.
