February 22, 2009: Not only is that my license plate, even the little Nuerburgring sticker under the left taillight is there.
The instruments are in the middle of the dash, the harnesses are red, there are louvers in the hood - everything is so good. I think the quality of the welding on the rollbar is accurately modeled as well!
Scotty won the design class (I'm assuming there are age groups involved, as his brother also took first in Design), but came in third in the speed contest. I could have warned him about this - the pinewood derby track is straight and the Seven's aerodynamics undoubtedly cost him. If he'd managed to find a venue with a few more corners, I'm confident he would have taken the checkered flag.
Amazing.
