Photos from Long Ireland Brewery’s 1st Pintwood Derby
From a spark of inspiration within the mind of [**Long Ireland Brewing**’s][lib] Dan Burke, to the surprise hit of the summer, the *DnU* team were thrilled to be amongst the two hundred people that experienced the [*Pintwood Derby*][pwd], on Saturday, July 26, in Riverhead, New York. There’s talk of making this an annual event, and, if so, look out competitors! The *DnU Generic Wheeler* will be burning across the finish line faster than I can complete a sentence, which is actually a long time if I’m being completely honest—sometimes I do run on.

- The cars arranged in order of sign-up await their race

- Each car participates in several heats on different tracks
-
- A late addition, and despite the excellent customization, the DnU Generic Wheeler fails to qualify for the next round
-
- Man in a Boat was a crowd favorite but couldn’t speed to a win
-
- And they’re off! on a impromptu, beautiful wooden track on the brewery floor
-
- Despite the awesome custom decals, the DnU Generic Wheeler failed to win it all. Melba shows the car how to go around a barrel

- We just really like the pictures on the Long Ireland Brewery walls
