Introducing the M&M car…
Pine Wood Derby 2nd Place Champion 2007!
This is a cherished possession in our house. Peyton designed it, painted it, made the decals, and did all of the sanding. He did have help using a saw (of course). Peyton was inspired to make an M&M race car when he saw a life-size replica at M&M World in Las Vegas. Plus the kid lives for chocolate*, so it was only logical…
By the way, his first Pine Wood Derby car was designed to look like a Hershey Bar:)

Most of the parents here do as well, but peyton worked with Bill who gabe him lots of help and supervision with the saw and sanding. In many ways, Peyton was on his own, but the was a hulking 6′-2″ guy right behind him.

It is. Peyton made his cars with Bill. He oversaw the operation. Gave peyton guidance and made certain we was safe – but on the flip side, he wanted peyton to learn.
