"If You Ain't First, You're Last"

And guess where we were! I'll give you a clue: No trophies came home with us today. Dippy was 4th in his field. Of 5! We're not sure where Goofy was. There were 15 siblings registered. I think he was around 10-12th. And Dippy? Yep. Last. I really don't know where Goofy and Dingy ranked. I just know that Dippy's car was last in all of her races. I think Goofy took a couple of 4th's or 5th's. They race 6 cars at a time. Goofy's car is the black with gold stripe on the second row up. Dippy's is the pickup on the bottom row.

The highlight of the races might have been the adult race. The adult race is an unlimited race so there are no rules about wheels or weights. We had two adults change their entries to siblings instead of racing against Andy and Adam. (A father son team.) They each had a car that weighed over one pound.

They crashed at the end. One car jumped off the track after hitting the pillows at the end of the track. It caused several bullets to fly off the car.

So we're not going out winners. We were invited back next year to enter as friends. We were talking to the Cubmaster and said we wouldn't be able to race again for 5 years when Goofy is in first grade. (And also, the Cubmaster will still be there as he has one more boy that becomes a Tiger next year.) He said we could enter next year in the sibling's, but I told him we don't have anyone left there. But, he said that the siblings is really the siblings AND FRIENDS division. So maybe. Maybe we can keep practicing to be really good at this for when Goofy is older. And maybe, we just need to get a life!
