Derby Dust® is proud to be an Authorized Derby Worx Dealer because Derby Worx remains on the cutting edge of Pinewood Derby innovations.

It all began in 2002 when Bill Launius Jr. launched the line of Derby Worx Pinewood Derby tools. Until then, it was difficult for dads and lads to build Pinewood Derby cars that could compete with the guys that had expensive equipment and fancy machine shops.

Utilizing an Okuma CNC lathe, Derby Worx now designs and manufactures a complete line of innovative tools for building and improving the performance of Pinewood Derby cars. The main focus of the Derby Worx Pro Tool line is to help parent and child teams build highly competitive cars with precision and be able to compete with those families with access to machine shops and other expensive equipment.

Derby Worx also manufactures a full line of super high performance wheels and axles. The BSA Pro Ultralite Wheels weigh in at only 1.0 grams and are extremely fast. Derby Worx has several BSA wheel models that are wicked fast and a set to fit any pack or district rules. Many BSA District Championships have been won using Derby Worx wheels.

Talk about extra cool wheels. The Derby Worx Pro Razor Xtreme (RSX) wheels for modified and pro stock derby cars are there. These are the ultimate wheels for open competition scout races. These are the fastest Pinewood Derby wheels we have ever raced. The RSX wheels are perforated precision machined wheels that are extremely light weight at a mere 0.80 oz. These wheels are completely machined from raw material not molded. This creates a perfectly balanced and symmetric wheel.

Bill’s demand for quality products, high performance and attention to detail has made Derby Worx, Inc. the most respected name in the Pinewood Derby industry.

– – A Message from Bill – –

I have always been fascinated by Pinewood Derby Racing! From the time my neighbor came home with his first kit, I could not wait until I was old enough to join the Cub Scouts so I could build a car too. So when I became a Cub Scout in the fall of 1975 my Dad and I went to the local scout shop to pick up a kit and get an early start on the car; we just couldn’t wait for that race! That car was gold and black, and it was the coolest car ever because my dad and I built it. As cool as it was, it was also fast, faster than everyone’s that year. But little did I know in 1975 what would eventually happen.

As the years went by we were involved with many derby cars. Several were mine, but others belonged to cousins, neighbors and friends that we helped over the years. When my son, Trey, became a Cub Scout it was even more exciting than ever. With the information age in full swing and the Internet starting to contain pinewood derby information, we could see there was a thirst for more racing information and supplies. Over the years I have had the opportunity to work with many talented people and through my own racing have learned and acquired many skills and tools. It was at this point I realized that the key points of Pinewood Derby Racing in most cases could not be done by most people without access to at least a simple machine shop and some knowledge of tools and fixtures. It was at this point the Pro Hub Tool, Pro Body Tool and Pro Axle Press were born and used to help my son win his Derby as a Tiger Cub.
