A stupid drogue and weak axles gave Thomas an amazing distance of 11 feet!
It must be true that having a driver helps...Yoda used the force to win
Buddha was too fat for any distance records..but Juz gets points for creative use of a breast-enlarger

Pix from the Track
Here's the Led Sled, clear winner on the day at over 200 feet. This was taken before an unfortunate meeting with the gutter, something that happened to a few of us after the ski club last night.
Damon, admiring the fine lines of his balsa wood creation "the Tull-Meister".
Pit lane before the race. A good cross section of most of the field.
