Just to add my $.02- Be sure that there is one continuous piece of fishing
line for all the tracks-in other words one line strung through eye-hooks
to ensure that the tension is the same on all lines.

Unfortunately the space derby, although a nice change of pace, has
too many opurtunities for problems and is hell for the scouters trying
to run it and be fair.

BTW: Don't tell anyone but: The lighter the ship the better!  Don't
paint it, carve as much off as possible and you'll win!!!!  Umm,
no guarantees, but try it!!
