Junkyard Wars Tour

ArtEnvironment writes "Junkyard Wars coming to a... MALL near you!? Here's your chance to experience Junkyard Wars firsthand, or at least a glorified pinewood, er I mean JUNK derby! You can build unique gravity-racers and compete on a 'special effects-filled', mini race track. In addition, you can watch clips from the show and possibly even win prizes, yay!"

Yeah but will they let you keep it?

Or will they crush it at the end of the competition?

Seriously, this sounds like fun. Hey Junkyard Wars, over here in Reno, eh?!

Engineers?

As one for all things scientific brought to our yought, I thing this mall idea is quite good. Maybe this will bring more kids out there tinkering with old remote controlled cars and rockets this summer.
Yes it is my intention to do this exact same thing, remote controlled electric car with rocket boosters attached on the side : bring the car up to speed, then clutch the transmission to go free-wheeling then trigger the boosters at a distance. Yes fun. Volunteers? - I am aiming for physical engieneering and hope that this program will bring more people into the wonderfull world of physics
