Wedge SE Kit

Standard Wheelbase

Extended Wheelbase

THE WEDGE SE adds an elegant twist to the classic wedge design. With ease of building and top performance, THE WEDGE SE is a great choice for new builders.

The kit includes a pre-cut and drilled pine block, lead weight (and tungsten weight for the extended version), instructions, and wood plugs (to cover the weight holes). Wheels and axles are not included, so use the wheels and axles supplied by your club or order them separately.

Two types of standard wheel base versions, and an extended wheel base version are available:

Standard Wheel Base - Axle Slots: Precision-cut axle slots that match BSA specifications in placement, depth, and width.

Standard Wheel Base - Axle Holes: Precision-drilled axle holes that match BSA specifications for placement. The holes are drilled with a #44 bit (fits BSA axles). One front axle hole is slightly raised so that the car will ride on three wheels (best performance).

Extended Wheel Base: Precision-drilled axle holes that match BSA specifications for placement. The holes are drilled with a #44 bit (fits BSA axles). One front axle hole is slightly raised so that the car will ride on three wheels (best performance).

The following standard options are available:

Drilled axle holes, 4 wheels on the ground - add $1.00

Drilled axle holes for Awana axles (3/32" bit) - add $1.00

Extended wheel base block with standard slots - add $1.00

Custom Designs decal sheet, 1/8" black pin-striping, and team stickers were used to customize the cars in the photos.

My son is in Webelos, and this is his third year in the pinewood derby. The previous two years he was lucky to beat a few cars. We just had his derby this weekend and he finished first in his den and ended up second in the entire pack!! I can't believe the difference your site made in the construction of his car.

In the two previous years we just cut the wood, painted it, and stuck the wheels on. This year, we used the free car plan from your site (WEDGE SE). We had fun building it with the detailed instructions, and it worked great. My son was thrilled that the car looked a hundred percent better than the previous two years, and didn't really act like he cared about winning (I think it was because of the disappointment from before, and he didn't think we would have a chance). When he came in first place in every heat of his den he got excited and began to think he could win the whole thing. He finished a close second with a race off for second and third. It made his day and mine. Thanks again!
