I had the privilege of working as a Product Designer for one of the Nations leading Industrial Design Consultancies for exactly 6 years (to the day). I had a great time but found a bit more freedom with OutMotoring.com which so happened to grow into my ‘new job’. Each year there is a very cool unlimited pinewood derby race that is held (as a small side event) at one of the major Industrial Design conferences and it always brings out of the best of the best in the ID world.

While I was not a part of this particular years contest, I had helped in years past. This years cars took first and second place and are flat out amazing works or art and engineering coolness. To give you some idea of what is as stake here with this contest…well there’s nothing except bragging rights and some free PR. Was it worth it for them? Of course.
