We show your car in 6 different painting schemes according to your car style. The painting schemes will show, for example, a more military-style for the Army Humvee, Tank, or Truck, more of a race car style for our Grand Prix, Firebird, Camaro, and Mustang
options, or more creative colors for quirky cars like the Sally car, Guitar, or Nike Sneaker cars. Most of our car plans also include cut-out templates for theme symbols or emblems, like the Lightning McQueen, Batmobile, Flash, and Spongebob cars.
Within each plan you will find links to show your car spinning 360 degrees so you can view it from all angles. Pinewood Pro car design plans are the only plans on the market with these cool features and that is why we consider them the best. Check

Winning Tips and Hints
Pinewood Derby
Tips & Hints
Before cutting your car, use a straight edge to draw lines down the center lengthwise and widthwise across your car. Then draw your car design template over these straight lines. The template and straight lines help guide your cutting on both sides of the car so everything is square.
Pinewood Derby
Wheels Tip
A lathed wheel means the wheel was turned at a high speed and "sanded" with a cutting tool. Lathed wheels are perfectly tuned around the axis of rotation giving you the highest performance.
