I designed this simple “pinewood” derby car with angeled axle holes as described in Mark Rober's video:
You shouldn't have to bend the axles. If the holes are too small when printed, be careful when drilling them out so as not to change the angle of the holes. There is also a cutout under the car placed where Mark says is the optimum place for weights.
If your rules say you have to use pinewood, you could try using this filament: https://www.matterhackers.com/store/l/fillamentum-timberfill-filament-075kg/sk/M7H94MEF
I recommend printing the car on its side with supports only in the weight cutout. 3 wall and low infill so you can max out the weights.
