Why don't the Builders publish their times? They claim they are Track Tested, why not publish the Ft/Sec or Lap Time???? Because, they at times will build a fast car, but most average speed cars, and they need to sell them! If one is to spend a good sum of money for a derby car, wouldn't you want to know exactly what you are paying for? There are two main reasons on why one would purchase a professionally built derby car, either not enough time to try it, or simply, your child has been beaten, and you want a WINNER! Although there is no guarantee where a car will place, the derby race has become very competitive in recent years. With the internet, the availability of engineered speed components.
