My First Post - Tiki Carving

We started out with some great ideas, a chomping mouth with big teeth to eat the other cars, cannons on each side to blow up the other competitors or a big catapult to throw a huge net and smother the others attempts to cross the finish line. These were mostly my sons ideas...mostly. We gave up trying to win with speed and cheating so we thought we would show them some style. We had a blast carving the Tiki Car which was my sons idea. He drew it out and I carved it. He did some sanding and I did the rest. Race day came and we were the hit of the show. We won 1st place for most creative! The trophy and the car sit in my office were they will be treasured forever.
