Hot Rod Magazine Race...
I talked to Smitty about this one last week...and this is actually Smitty's race. But I thought I would get the ball rolling. The idea is a simple one...the race is open to any car that has graced the pages of Hot Rod Magazine. You need not copy a particular car (but I think it would be cool if maybe you posted a shot of the car that inspires you).
I think we've probably all seen cars in magazines that we thought were cool...well, here's your chance to race that car...at Hot Wheels scale, of course!
This opens the field up A LOT...think about it...not only Muscle Cars and Hot Rods, but Race Cars, Imports, Classics...they've all been in there!
