Top Ten "DO NOTS!"
By William Beaver
(In reverse order)
10. DO NOT tell your child that his car "could be the fastest in the race" before the race.
9. DO NOT do all of the work on your child's car.
8. DO NOT "over work" on the car. Quickly made, simple cars often win! Go figure.
7. DO NOT get in a hurry painting the car, or especially mounting the wheels and axles.
6. DO NOT think a winning car and trophy is what makes your child most happy.
5. DO NOT overuse super glue, NyOil II, or Krytox.
4. DO NOT glue more than $3.00 in coins underneath your car.
3. DO NOT focus all attention and praise only on the fastest car during the derby.
2. DO NOT make your car too thin, wheels too thin, axles too thin, or wallet too thin.
1. DO NOT whine or cry "foul" when you lose.
