A MiniBrick Derby car is the same width as a Pinewood Derby car and will run on a standard Pinewood Deby track, but is made from either LEGO® bricks or MEGA® BLOKS.
Using the axle and wheel kit from The Derby Magic Company, you can build a LEGO Pinewood Derby car from your bricks, and race it on a Pinewood Derby track.
The Pinewood Derby LEGO car makes a great additional activity for the children in your group. Plan a race in addition to your annual pinewood derby.
Timed build events are great activities too. Let the kids take 15 minutes to build a car and then race them!
Just like with a Pinewood Derby car, more weight on the car means more speed and more distance. If your MiniBrick Derby car is to light, it may not make it to the end of the track. To help you weight your car, we have a die cast zinc brick for the axle base. We have put together 2 kits, each of different weight.
