Hot Wheels Race

Super32 · 10-07-2017, 10:56 AM

Does anyone on here have any first hand knowledge on which Hot Wheels or Matchbox cars are the fastest. My elementary school has a kid race and a staff race. One of our staff members is also an organizer and she smoked everyone last year. I just want a chance to beat her!

The track is 20 feet long.

I have been researching it but if anyone has input it would be greatly appreciated.

Peeping Bomb if you can find one. Heavier the better.

‘56 Flashsider... That was from way back, though. I have no clue about vehicles from 2000 on.

This is a current production Hot Wheel. Buy a couple to figure out which one is quickest.

The car will stink like WD-40 and he might be accused of cheating, no?!

My boy has miles of track and hundreds of cars, he would always race one car against anotherfor hours. Placing the winners in a pile. He had muliple cars called slingshot. No car could beat them, they were always the grand champion.

Any Hot Wheel Sizzlers should win the race. I'd go with one of the Redlines.

You'll need a charging station.

Was just going to put that. I used to do that to all my pinewood derby cars. Pick your car, get 2 identical ones. Put graphite on one, and not on the other. Race them and see which one wins.
