Two cakes down and many more to go...

I made two cakes for the car cake. They are the bottom layers.  Oh, you would not believe how much research I will be doing to make this a spectacular cake.  I hope to make a video of the execution of the final product. 

The quintessential white layer cake...

My quest to find the quintessential white cake recipe continues.  Each time I find a new recipe, with a bit of a twist, I think, "is this the one?"
My best white/yellow cakes are my chiffon.  Aside from the chocolate, carrot, banana, pumpkin cakes that are delicious, I have yet to find a really good white cake.  And I know that I'm not the only one out there seeking the recipe.  Anyone out there up to the challenge of a perfect white cake recipe? 
I am getting ready to design a car cake for a 7 year old boy's birthday.  I will keep you apprised of my progress.  It will be a chocolate and white cake.  I've done some research and feel confident that I will succeed with a nice show piece.
