        OK guy's, Jeff over at Hot Rod Magazine is going to start a page on Flicker for the Pinewood Derby and wants some pics of your racers.

        So far, only Jim has put one up.
        Post up pics of your race car or send me an email and he will add them to their Pinewood Derby Flicker page.

                      Thanks everybody, The wife wanted me to try to make it look a little like her car. With the body shape being alot different than a 69 Camaro, I had to rely on a little detail painting to change the appearance. I really don't care if it wins a race. It was worth the donation to the Austin Hatcher Foundation.

                        Bob, lots of Hobby stores (Not Hobby Lobby, but places that sell model kits and RC stuff) carry PWD cars and parts.

                        Nice car Jim.
