Nerdy Derby - Part of the Atlanta Science Festival
Primary tabs
Build your own innovative car and bring it to Nerdy Derby for some fun, crazy racing. Or come and get help from folks from Georgia Tech and Decatur Makers to create your own personalized vehicle to speed down the 30+ foot track. The Nerdy Derby is a twist on the Pinewood Derby, but where all rules are thrown out and the focus on rewarding creativity, cleverness, and ingenuity.
Competition categories includes: slowest, fastest, funniest epic fail, cutest, and many others. Cars can be made from metal, wood, plastic, Legos, cardboard, cheese or whatever you can dream up. Just make sure the wheels are 1¾“ apart and the car isn’t more than 8” high or 5” wide.
