Simonwood Derby

On Sunday Simon and I built some tracks to race his different cars and trains against each other.  We tried lots of different matchups and gradually eliminated the pool of contenders until we were left with a high-powered final race: Lightning McQueen vs. Thomas the Train.  Two of Simon's favorites (I think some of the results may have been fixed), but not exactly a fair race.  Piston Cup champion Lightning McQueen easily crushed Thomas as we confirmed once and for all that freight trains are not faster than race cars.
