Charlotte, North Carolina Jun 13, 2025 (Issuewire.com) - Turbo Derby, a leading supplier of tools and accessories for Pinewood Derby cars, is proud to honor the timeless tradition of father-son bonding through the Cub Scouts' Pinewood Derby. At the heart of the company’s mission is a deep appreciation for the memories created between parents and children—memories that last far beyond race day.
Founded by Brian Stanley, both a former Cub Scout and a Cub Scout dad, Turbo Derby was born out of a desire to make the Pinewood Derby experience easier, more fun, and more meaningful for families everywhere. Stanley knows firsthand the value of the time spent working side by side with his son-measuring, cutting, sanding, and fine-tuning their wooden racers.
“While my son's Pinewood Derby cars and trophies gather dust in the closet, the fond memories we created over the many hours we spent working on his cars will remain,” says Stanley. “My goal with Turbo Derby is to help parents and their kids build those cherished memories!”
Turbo Derby offers a curated selection of essential tools, pre-cut car bodies, polished wheels, and precision tungsten weights designed to make the car-building process accessible for families at any experience level. While the products are engineered with performance in mind—so racers can strive for speed and victory—Stanley emphasizes that it’s about more than winning.
“The mission of Pinewood Derby is simple: for parents and their kids to spend time together,” Stanley explains. “The child is not supposed to build the car. The parent is not supposed to build the car. They're supposed to build it together!”
That core belief is what sets Turbo Derby apart. The company is deeply committed to reinforcing the original spirit of the Pinewood Derby by educating new families on the importance of teamwork and involvement. Too often, the competitive nature of the event leads parents to take control of the project—robbing children of the chance to learn, grow, and participate in something they helped create. Turbo Derby aims to shift that mindset.
Through detailed guides, videos, and community stories, Turbo Derby empowers families to work side by side on their Pinewood Derby projects. Whether it's a child picking their favorite paint color or a parent showing how to use a hand tool, every step of the journey matters.
As the next generation of Cub Scouts gears up for race season, Turbo Derby remains dedicated to supporting this cherished tradition with quality products, expert tips, and a heartfelt mission. By helping families focus on the process—not just the finish line—Turbo Derby is building more than fast cars. It’s building lifelong memories.
