My wife asked his kid, how did
your car get such a nice paint job? He said, I don't know. Later I
heard the boy say he was not allowed to touch his car.

This is the problem with PWD. The dad is also living vicariously through the
kid...

It's easy to fix though...have an 'unlimited' class for dads. And/or have
the boys build the cars at regular den meetings. Have a special race for the
slowest car that crosses the finish line.
