P.C.O.Y (Pinewood Car of the Year)?

Here it is...

We worked really hard on this years car, Ky said he wanted a Jimmer car and I came up with the Y concept. We both cut it out, Ky did most of the relief cuts and I did the harder stuff then we sanded  it and then the old painter in me took over and ... well, I still have a little skill left. The pictures don't do it justice its a black to navy to royal fade, with 5 coats of automotive hi-gloss clear coat, its pretty cool if I do say so myself.

We then polished the wheels and axles, drilled it and weighted it perfectly to 5oz.  It has all the breeding of a champion but we all know sometimes the pretty horse doesn't win... wish us luck, race on Tuesday
