    Flickr Find: Pinewood derby iPhone

    Filed under: Odds and ends, Flickr Find The words pinewood derby may be meaningless to you, that’s unless you were a boy scout. Then, no doubt, the pinewood derby will conjure up many happy memories (I lost miserably at my boy scout troop’s pinewood derby, though I only worked on my vehicle for 15 minutes). Now, envision if a bunch of talented grownups got together and had a pinewood derby. You would get something like the event that the Columbus Society of Communicating Arts just held. Above you see one participant’s pinewood derby car all decked out as an iPhone. I hope it is an iPhone 3G, since those are twice as fast (see what I did there?). Check out the full Flickr set that Jaime Santillan posted, or see the iPhone vehicle here, here and here. And I think you’ll recognize some Apple products in this picture as well.

    Pinewood Derby iPhone: And You Thought the 3G Was Fast

    If you were a Boy Scout at one time, you probably had a flashback after reading the words “Pinewood Derby.” For the uninitiated, the derby is a time honored tradition where Cub Scouts race small cars they construct from a block of wood, plastic wheels and some nails. As you can see, this particular car is expertly crafted into an iPhone lookalike. The car was designed by one of the professional print, web, and environmental designers attending a derby for charity put on by the Columbus Society of Communication Professionals—so it is not a true Pinewood Derby car. To be honest, I don’t think that this would even pass strict Boy Scout regulations. Nonetheless, it is a damn fine looking car and it appears to be up to date with 2.0 software. Unfortunately, we don’t know if this thing is truly state-of-the-art with 3G horsepower under the hood. [Flickr and CSArts via Make]
