In the Cub Scouts, the Pinewood Derby is a big event. Little boys, with a bit of help from their daddies, carve a 6-inch race car and attach wheels. Several cars race down an incline and a winner is declared. Sometimes the winner even gets his picture in the paper. Daddies often know of ways to increase the speed of the car. Smoothing the axle with emery cloth (a kind of sandpaper for metal) will reduce the race time one second. Putting graphite (a lubricant) on the axle will reduce the race time three seconds. Suppose some ingenious daddy did both to his son's car.
