Make sure the slots are square to the body of the car. If the slots aren't square, you don't have a prayer


If necessary, flip the block over and recut to make sure they are square. It's rubbing against the center curb that slows them down the most. Friction is the enemy.


Polish the axles and wheel to remove any burrs.


The weight is best located just rear of center of the car.


The wedge shapes tend to be faster.

Damn Marky Dos, I would kill someone for a slice of peanut butter pie!

Koffe Kup Cafe in Hico Texas. Used to buy the whole pie if I was rolling thru..

Course, my metabolism was a hell of a lot faster then...
