Luge Racer Kit
Product ID: 65-9639
Create your own downhill racer!
You’ve probably seen the luge competition during the Winter Olympics. At the starting line, a helmeted athlete lays flat on a specially designed luge ready to speed down an ice-covered course. Like a Pinewood Derby® heat, it’s a race against time — and gravity determines who the winner will be!
Now you can get in on the downhill racing action with this exciting Luge kit. It comes with virtually everything you need to be competition-ready fast, including a preshaped body and race-legal wheels and axles. A stick-on chassis weight allows additional fine-tuning, while the Raceday Log/Tips and Tricks Book is loaded with helpful hints on how to cross the finish line first.
Look for the Luge, Grand Prix Racer, Funny Car, Military Vehicle, Skateboard Racer and Dragster Kits at better hobby stores and retailers everywhere. If it doesn’t have the Revell® name and Boy Scouts of America seal, it’s not an officially licensed Pinewood Derby® Product!
Why our Pinewood Derby® racers stand out:
• Official wheels and axles included! Unlike some other kits, Racer Kits include official Pinewood Derby® wheels and axles. That makes them a convenience for you, instead of something extra to buy.
• A better body. Racer bodies give you a head start on good looks. They’re CAD-drawn and preshaped to eliminate unnecessary shaping work. Sand it smooth…and you’re ready to paint.
• Sandpaper and decals included. The sandpaper you need? It’s included, along with onepeel & stick decal sheet. Let the good looks roll!
• Weight for performance tuning. Make sure your car’s weight is race legal on race day. You can remove excess weight by breaking sections at the scores — and secure the weight to the chassis just by sticking it on.
• Pinewood Derby® Raceday Log/Tips and Tricks Book. A must-have for the serious competitor. There are 16 pages of performance secrets and how-to’s for pre-race tuning, and space for recording setups, times, races and results!
• Injection-molded detail parts. Your Luge racer can be made more realistic with the included driver helmet, hands and feet. All arrive painted and ready to install!
