  1. Great job Wayne! Johnson is my favorite driver, and I always enjoy seeing builds of his cars. I have those decals in the bullpen. I want to do Jimmie's regular 2016 scheme first, so I can get all seven of the championship cars built.
  2. Wow Todd!! Another beauty.

    Thanks for the comments everybody. I appreciate it. Bruce, snow was not in the forecast, but unfortunately the weather people didn't get it right.

    The Six Pack

    This is a Revell snapper of Jimmie Johnson's 2013 championship Chevy SS and is built box stock. I added the side skirts and front splitter per a tutorial provided by MarkJ. The paint is Rustoleum Cobalt Blue metallic, which I think matches the blue used by HMS at that time pretty well. The clear coat is Future. The decals are from Patto's Place and were doubled up to improve opacity. I painted the white striping on the sides of the car and the roof. The decals do not fit the roof well at all, which is a problem of Patto's decals and the Revell SS and they did not fit well on the sides after the modification to the side skirts. Pretty straightforward and enjoyable build. Thanks for looking. Here are models of the previous 5 championships.

  9. Wow, that is really nice. The other two look great as well.
  10. You did a great job! I built this kit a couple of years ago, and like you, did not want to do the GSX version. I painted mine purple metallic and it is one of my favorite builds.

    Looks great Pat!
  20. I have season tickets at Kansas, which doesn't mean much, other than I have seen a number of races. But having seen Danica race in person a number of times, the boys did not play nice with her quite often. I can recall instances where Logano, Hamlin and Kahne in particular were squeezing her and not giving her the room to maneuver her car they way they gave other male drivers. It all looks innocent enough on T.V. because the cameras do not and cannot spend the time covering a single driver for a number of laps; however, sitting in the stands, there was nothing innocent about what the boys were doing on a number of occasions.
