This month's theme is racing. Each entry is listed with what inspired it. I encourage you to take the inspiration into account when choosing the best body.

Enjoy!

Here's my interpretation of an old race car that has been put out to pasture and maybe rescued again for a little weekend autocross work

This paint scheme actually is inspired by Steve Kinser's 2004 Quaker State Sprint Car. It was a tribute celebrating everybodies favorite sailor,Popeye on his 75th anniversary (Popeye's annivesary, not Steve's). Being a fan of sprint cars and having spent seven years in the Navy a Popeye theme only seemed natural. I had to simplify the design from the original car due to the contours of the mini slider body and the small scale.

Thanks AirBoston, that was a close race, it could have easily gone your way. I did a double take, I thought yours was a real car at first, looks like some of the cars I rode around in in High School.
