Aloha bruddah!
Tiki looking pono brah! Cant wait till da buugah is pau! Its funny about da kine pinewood derby car you made! I was cub scout too, and thanks to my pops and step-father (a design engineer) I won 3 years in a row! But, I cant really take any credit. All I did was tell them what shape & color car I wanted. Then my pops made the body and I took it over to my step-father who used 40 years of engineering experience and weighted the car perfectly, used all kine little tips and tricks to make the car faster than everyones...A bit of an empty win though (all 3 years)...The car was so fast, there was no competition and after the second year I think my fellow cub scouts gave up trying to make da kine car that could win...My step-father went high-tech space age on da kine and even though winning was great, I did feel it was bit unfair to the other scouts who didnt have some kine mechanical genius help build their car!

I do love yours though! It should win just because of the positive mana from the ki'i! Keep up the good work! Ill check this post to see what becomes of your big Tiki!

Malama Pono!
