Today is the day! The 72nd annual All-American Soap Box Derby is underway! (This IS an International Event...lolz!) There are a few teams from places abroad, such as: New Zeland, Germany, and Japan. This should be a Great day of Gravity racing! will let you all know how it turns out for my Niece later tonight!
Cheers!
Mike

Well, it was a good start...
Heat 1 was a cinch...
Heat 2 however... was lost by a 'Hair on a gnats ass'...lol!
As it was a single elimination race, we ended up placing roughly 30th in the WORLD!
Still, a MAJOR accomplishment in the world of Regulated Gravity Racing!
There's always next year too...lol! Going home to Valley Park, MO in the morning...
See you all in game REAL soon!
Cheers!
Mike

On a side note:
My family and I may be appearing in a Movie related
to the Soap Box Derby coming out in June/July 2011...
Here is a link to the Filming website: Soap Box Derby Movie

Oh cool neat! I'll watch it when it comes out

haha bad ass. I doubt I'd rank 30th in the world for anything, much less something that cool. Maybe I'm 30th in the world at fart lighting or projectile vomiting... it's only a shame I'll never get a chance to know for sure.

We still love you Leuke!!

I know for a fact that Leuke is rated above 30th in the world for hand-farting. Disbelieve me? Just ask him to do it for you over vent sometime.

Truth! I am excellent at hand farts!
