cool. speaking of firebird pinewood derby cars. this is one that jpack made for the adults race at his kid's pinewood derby race. thats one of the most realistic cars i've seen. ironically i made a camaro back in the late 80s that was way too round to be a 3rd gen, it actually looked a lot like the 93 camaro that debuted a few years later, haha.
