Looks good, but I'd rather them call it the "Pennzoil Z-7" scheme. And why they put another pic of the '84 car in the video for 1988, I do not know.
Glad to see this scheme on the track, it is a classic and even though it will take some getting used to, I think it is a better Shell/Pennzoil scheme. Also, I wish Helio would have gotten a red firesuit with yellow patches a la Rick in the 80's.

Okay, this makes up for the firesuit not being retro Jordan

Okay....Okay.....I made up my mind which car I want to win the 500 now! I love Pennzoil cars! The helmet is pretty neat as well! Gosh darn it I need to get more kits done......

When I saw it in Racer my first thought was "Calvin has to see this!" My second thought was "Michael has to see this!"
Fantastic looking car, especially with the possibility of a new 4x winner in the last 4x winners colors.
That said, with Dario gone, I really don't want to see another 4x winner. I will admit HCN truly deserves it.
Though honestly, this paint scheme softens that stance a bit.

Interesting how the above pictures vary in color. We talk about it with older pics but it still happens today. Also, the graphics have changed slightly between the two DW12s shown, so it will be interesting to see what this looks like finally on race day. Here is the '80 winner, '88 winner, and Helio's '14 challenger. Jordan

One of my best friends is a Rick Mears life long fan but he can't stand Helio. I think it's cool but he thinks it's a travesty! LOL

I have Calvin's DW12, and I sure would like to build that car Michael. I think you could sell some of those decals.

Does this conversation mean that there is a 1/25th scale Pennzoil DW12 in our modeling future?
