Pinewood Derby Speed Products

To make a fast, winning car you need Speed Products. Yes, you can win a race without the best speed products on the market, but that depends on your competition! Chances are, some racers know the Winning Secrets and have created or purchased speed products (polished axles, lathed wheels, lubricants, etc.) needed to make a fast car.

If you want a fast, winning car, you should consider our Speed Products that have been track-tested to prove they are the fastest.  

To win your race, select the best Speed Products that are appropriate for your race. That means, you need to read your race rules and select the most appropriate products for your race. How do you know which products are "appropriate"? Read your race rules to determine which speed products are allowed for your particular race.  If you have questions about your rules, ask your race manager because EVERY race is different and the rules are interpreted by whomever is inspecting cars at your race.

Our PRO Products are categorized below. I summarized the category and highlighted a Speed Product to give you an idea what is in that category.  

Lubricants

PRO Graphite

Pinewood PRO Graphite is a special blend of dry powdered graphite with sub-micron molybdenum disulfide additive. It substantially decreases friction and is the single best thing you can do to increase your car speed! Track tests show a 17% to 20% speed increase, depending on the axles being used.
