Thursday! Thursday! THURSDAY! See five monstrous ounces of bone-crushing madness careen down the track at break-neck speeds. Get a heaping helping of danger-a duel of fate where only one car escapes the twisted wooden wreckage of THUN-DER-DOME!
Pinezilla will scorch your eyebrows to a charred stubble with its fiery chunks of pure adrenaline! Watch as it blazes a trail over TEN TOY CARS and crushes an entire school bus into BURNING SHRAPNEL! You'll be on the edge, edge, EDGE of your seat with a PURE UNLEADED BEER in your fist and a gob full of eXtreme snacky treats!
In celebration of SPACES' 34th birthday, artists and non-artists (ages 8 and up) are invited to make their own car for the derby using the kits provided by SPACES. Entry fee for racers is $8 ($5 for SPACES members) and gets you a car kit (block of wood, 4 nails, and 4 tires) and one beverage from the bar the night of the event. If you still have your old Pinewood Derby cars from yesteryear, you may enter them in Old Skool for $3 (entry fee + a beverage from the bar).
Cars entering in the other categories need not meet any requirements. As a matter of fact, the cards don't even need to move. Make them small, make them huge, make them sleek, make them elaborate. HAVE FUN!
