FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Wood Block Grand Prix?
The Wood Block Grand Prix is a fun, family-friendly racing event where kids and families build and customize wooden race cars using official kits provided by Rinehart Racing. It’s all about creativity, teamwork, and building lasting memories—then racing your creation to see how it stacks up!
Who can participate in the races?
Races are open to students from Kindergarten through 6th grade at participating schools. We also have a “Family & Other” division for parents, siblings, neighbors, and friends who want to join in the fun. However, only students from participating schools can qualify for the championship round.
What’s included in the car kit?
Each kit includes a wood block, wheels, axles (screws), and all the parts you’ll need to build your car. Kits must be used as-is—no outside parts are allowed. You’re free to shape, paint, and decorate your car as long as it meets the official race specs.
What are the size and weight limits for the cars?
To qualify, each car must:
Be no longer than 7¼ inches
Be no wider than 2¾ inches
Be no taller than 3 inches
Weigh no more than 6 oz (171 grams)
Have at least 3/8 inch clearance underneath
Have at least 1¾ inches between the wheels
Your car will go through a pre-race inspection to ensure it meets all the rules.
Can we decorate our cars however we want?
Absolutely—just keep it safe and fair. You can paint your car and add decorations, but nothing sticky, wet, or likely to interfere with other racers is allowed. Ribbons, strings, or parts that might fall off mid-race will need to be removed before racing.
When should we arrive on race day?
Race day check-in and inspection runs from 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM. Races start at 9:00 AM, beginning with Kindergarten and progressing by grade level throughout the day. The final Championship Round begins at 3:00 PM.
