Description
DerbyDMV Version 11.0
DerbyDMV™ is a software application that will create mock driver's licenses for your racers, complete with their photo. It is a nice way to add fun to your race and give your racers a souvenir keepsake. Create licenses for any type of race that includes a vehicle, like Pinewood Derby®, Awana® Grand Prix, Raingutter Regatta, Space Derby®, and others. They are customizable, so you can call them a "Pilot's License", "Learner's Permit" or anything else that better suits your type of race. You can also create pit passes to be worn around the neck by the racers or to identify your race crew.
Key Features:
Driver's Licenses - A cool souvenir keepsake for your racers, complete with their photo.
- Printing Driver's Licenses - Print the driver's licenses to standard business card paper (Avery template 8371 or equivalent). The paper is perforated for easy separation of the licenses. If you wish, you can laminate them to make them more durable, using a laminator or by simply applying packaging tape to both sides and then trimming.
- Racer Data - Manually enter racers or import racer information from an existing spreadsheet or database export. You can even directly import your racer data directly from a GrandPrix Race Manager™ data file. Racers can choose their own vehicle numbers or they can be assigned by the race staff or the software itself.
- Racer Photos - There are two ways to get photos of your racers onto the driver's licenses:
- Capture the photos directly from a web cam or video camera.1
- Copy the photos from your digital camera to your PC. Then manually select the appropriate photo for each racer.
- Highly Customizable
- Race Vehicles - Select from Cars, Trucks, Boats, or Rockets or even specify some altogether different type of race vehicle.
- Titles - Two title lines are displayed on the driver's licenses and can be customized to suit your race. You can also customize the color of these titles.
- Racer Information - You can display or hide racer information like Vehicle#, Group, Subgroup, Custom Field, and Issue Date. The Custom Field can store any type of data that you want. The issue date can be changed to be any date you wish.

- Default Racer Image - If you don't have a photo for a racer, a default image will be shown. You can use the supplied default image or use your own.

Pit Passes - Pit Passes can be printed and worn around the neck. You can use these to identify your race crew members or in lieu of driver's licenses for the racers.
- Printing Pit Passes - Print the pit passes to standard name badge paper (Avery template 5390, 5392 or equivalent). The paper is perforated for easy separation of the pit passes. You can use commercially available name badge holders and lanyards so they can be worn around the neck or you can laminate them, punch a hole and add a loop of string.

Driver's Test - Adults need to pass a test in order to get their driver's license, so why not give the kids a friendly quiz on what they've learned?
- Enter an unlimited number of True/False questions or import a list of test questions.
- A sample test is provided.
Eye Chart - To make getting their driver's license even more like mom and dad had to, you can give the kids an eye test2. You can also use the eye chart as a decoration.
- The letters on the eye chart are customizable, so you can spell out a secret message, like "PINEWOOD DERBY IS FUN".
Easy to Use - DerbyDMV is very easy to use and intuitive.
Notes:
- Snapshot feature requires a compatible video camera or webcam and a connection to your PC. See the Requirements tab for specific hardware needs.
- The Eye Chart is not intended for use as a true test of vision. It's just for fun.
