Fastest new HW models

ManiacMotorsports Saturday, 6/28/2025

Just thought I'd start a thread about the fastest castings that HW (and MBX maybe) have put out lately. 

A real standout to me has been the Chevy Silverado EV RST. I've seen it race multiple places and do well. 

I just bought a '31 Ford Model A Custom. It made it to my top 5 fastest stock cars I own! 

An older casting but one I think is pretty good: Track Dwagon. I've only bought a couple of the original paint job so far, and they've been decently quick.

I've also heard that the new casting Hot Wheengs can be fast. I'm sending one to Elevation Diecast Racing for his gift car race, so I guess we'll find out! 

Recently I've noticed that HW Mainlines as a whole have been a little faster than before. Has anyone else noticed that?

Share other castings that you've had good luck with down below!

Hi Roller ll - but I guess that's not really "new" news.

Love these threads thanks for posting.

silverado aside they're all new ones on me.  Which colour / year models have you had luck with?


  • Model A and Hot Wheengs have only had one color released so far. Track Dwagon's original gray and neon pink — ManiacMotorsports
  • Thanks for replying - just checked the model a and there’s a red and a green one? — RobertBcfc
  • Thanks for the steer on the Dwagon and Hot Wheegs - both now en route, looking forward to seeing them go — RobertBcfc
  • No guarantees. I hope they're fast! — ManiacMotorsports

I agree with the Chevy EV Silverado. It's quick straight out of the packet! I've got a Pick your Ride event going down, so will see how some 'randoms' perform.

Too many to pick just one. If you're hunting for speed I suggest checking out some 5-packs. There is the Starter Set and the Stunt Set that are on my wish list right now. Also I'm a big fan of X-ray Cars and Mystery Cars. Good luck.


  • Yes, 5-packe are always fast. The Jaguar too — ManiacMotorsports
  • Truth about your average 5-pack car's greater speed compared to identical single card castings. Is there something that the Indonesia factory plainly does better?? — Chris_Hood

@Chris, I do think some castings are assembled by "the new guy". Nothing comes to mind right now.

I realize it's not a mainline but, has anyone rolled a BMW M1 Procar from the 2025 Hot Ones series? Full metal casting previously released as a premium w/RRs, now with chrome HOs...much potential there.
