Friday, March 6, and Saturday, March 7, 2026
Your family is invited to rev up for Urban University’s 3rd Annual Pinewood Grand Prix!
Registration fee per participant is $3.00. This cost will cover two meals, your car kit, and basic accessories. Tools will be provided to shape, design, and create your car to compete on race day in both the Fastest and Best In Show divisions.
Advanced registration and payment are required by 11:59am, Thursday, February 26. Once you have completed the registration, a payment link will be sent via email and text in which you will have four days to submit payment and complete registration.
Registrations are not complete until payment is received.
Due to ordering food and supplies in advance, we will not be able to accept registrations after this date or issue a refund after Sunday, March 1 if you must withdraw.
The Erie City Mission donors, sponsors, and volunteers have invested significantly to make this event possible. So that we may respect and steward their contributions and time well, we ask that you only register if you can commit to participating both days.
ALL cars must be started and completed at the building session on Friday evening.
