Weights

All PineCar Weights are Lead Free!!!

Weights are one of the most important factors when building a winning PineCar racer. The heavier your racer is, the faster it will go! All PineCar weights are incremental and scored so sections may be broken off, even on race day. Most racing specifications require your racer weigh as close to five ounces as you can get it, but must not exceed five ounces. If using flat weights (tapered, strip or bar), carve or rout the bottom of your racer so the weight sits flush with the bottom of the racer. Be careful around wheel axle slots. If using round or combo weights, drill a 3/8” hole and leave the weight loose until race day, in case you need to trim weight off. Then glue them carefully so that the weight doesn’t move.


If Sm. Movie and Lg. Movie buttons appear by the items, 360° QuickTime movies are available.
