This race was based on the Hot Wheels '55 Bel Air Gasser model. It is currently available in 4 versions.

My Vette busted an axle in the middle of the series and neither of the other two cars every made it past the final rounds.

JDC 442 did continue his overall dominance and won the final series handily!
