Dominate your next pinewood derby race with the PRO Driller tool, the must-have instrument for serious competitors. This patented mini-drilling jig is engineered toPrecision axle holes are the foundation of a fast pinewood derby car. The PRO Driller empowers you to effortlessly create perfectly straight axle holes, 2.5-degree angled axle holes for wheel canting, extended wheelbase configurations, and even raised wheel setups. If you’re committed to building a winning car, the PRO Driller is the one tool you can’t afford to be without. It’s your all-in-one solution to increase your car speed in four critical ways:
-
Achieve Perfectly Straight Axle Holes: Eliminate wheel drag and maximize efficiency. Straight axle holes ensure your car rolls true, preventing unwanted contact with the center rail or side rails of the track. By minimizing friction, you channel every ounce of energy into forward momentum, directly translating to increased speed.
-
Implement a Raised Wheel Hole: Reduce rolling resistance for an extra speed boost. Racing with only three wheels in contact with the track minimizes friction. The PRO Driller allows you to precisely drill a raised wheel hole, lifting one wheel and further reducing the energy required to propel your car forward.
-
Create 2.5 Degree Angled Axle Holes for Wheel Canting: Optimize wheel-to-axle contact and minimize friction at the crucial point of rotation. By drilling angled axle holes, you can cant your wheels, encouraging them to migrate towards the axle head. This reduces the contact area and friction between the wheel and axle, leading to significant speed gains.
-
Design an Extended Wheelbase: Enhance stability and track straighter runs for consistent performance. An extended wheelbase increases your car’s stability, reducing wobble and ensuring it tracks straighter down the lane. This enhanced stability translates to more consistent speeds and a competitive edge.
Exclusive Patented Features Designed for Precision and Ease of Use:
-
Patented View Port: The PRO Driller’s innovative View Port allows for effortless alignment with your car block’s pre-cut axle slot. This unique feature ensures you can easily re-drill existing slots with perfect straightness, guaranteeing smooth axle insertion and saving your fingertips from frustration.
-
Adjustable “Easy Slide” Feature: Universally compatible with all standard pinewood derby car blocks. The PRO Driller’s adjustable “Easy Slide” mechanism provides a snug, secure fit for any pinewood derby car block, whether it’s BSA Cub Scout, Awana, Royal Rangers, or other brands. Forget about shims or shaving – the PRO Driller adapts to your block.
-
