Original Toronto Star caption: Over-all winner of the great egg race at Ontario Science Centre yesterday was Egg-centricity; built by Bob McCallum and Chris Thomson of Brmapton. They used two longplaying records for wheels. McCallum launches it on its record 121-metre journey. All entries derived their basic power from an elastic band; although they were in different shapes; like airplanes.
