The boys have really enjoyed building derby cars with their dad. This year Isaiah helped Carter and a friends son build their cars.
Carter and his dad spent all day one Saturday picking out designs and sanding the car to shape. Then Carter worked on getting it painted just perfect. I tried to help him think less is more as far as the paint job went because he wanted to put blotches everywhere. In the end he did a great job. When it was time to put the wheels on Isaiah found out that they didn't fit good because of the design, so he had to spend a few days working out a fix, but like always he came through. On race day the car looked great.
Carter raced against twenty other races. It was fun to see all the different designs and how excited all the boys got as the race went on. Carter ended up taking 7th.
