Welcome to Pisano Racing |

04/06/08 - Pisano Racing’s Danny Pisano was gracious enough to offer his car to be put on display for Cub Scout Pack 824’s annual Pinewood Derby. Jeff Utterback’s sons, Morgan and Miles, are scouts in dens in this pack. It was an amazing event with most of the kids and some parents very interested in the Funny Car. Danny, Jeff, and Mike Fillitti were busy answering questions from the curious scouts right up until race time. “It’s always great to interact with children who aren’t afraid to ask questions", stated Jeff. The most popular was, "How do you get out?” Jeff, who was a cub scout and participated in a Pinewood Derby with his pack back in 1970, marveled at the modern-day version of the Derby. The track of today is longer and can accommodate more cars than the “Nostalgia” track that was set up for display and for some grudge racing after your class eliminations were over. Also of note is the digital win-order and print-out of every heat. Pinewood Derby’s version of a time slip. |

It was a fun day and a great way to expose kids and their families to Nostalgia Funny cars. Thanks again to Danny Pisano and Mike Fillitti for brining the car and spending their Sunday at the Derby. |
