I'm amazed at the turn-out...thank you, Everybody, for taking the time to get these teams together.  I can't wait to see them rumbling down the track!



  • That's about what mine will do, rumble down the track lol. — Dadvball
  • Its better to rumble than tumble, like my first test with loose axles. — FatMike

  • i may have to start polishing the axles with a prize pack like this ! — model40fan
  • I think the interior/chassis by itself is pretty stylish — redlinederby
  • Thanks Guys! It is getting molded this weekend, so I'll show progress shots along the way! — 72_Chevy_C10

With a heavy heart we are gathered here today, to pay our last respects to our fallen friends,

They died how they lived, fast and hard ... may they take up a prominant place in the family hot wheels junkyard  diorama ...

They are survived by a flat black t bucket, a red altered state and a red, one stack, six banger c10...

The living seem to roll ok, but may be emotionally damaged after the crash... the worst I have ever seen, I had to blow deep breaths into a brown paper bag !

... They will not be entered into the win to get in "hat" ... they have already earned their way in !

 my condolences go out to big mike with his loss...

the carnage...

may they rest in peace.


  • Hand on heart...vaya con dios...amigos...headed to the drag strip in the sky... — Traction-Event
  • Oh Man! How do even do that? — 72_Chevy_C10
  • My 2-year-old couldn't even do damage like that. Impressive. — redlinederby
  • I drove a truck for the USPS I know stuff happens but Darn!! — FatMike
  • That tow truck fast. Rest in Parts old friend. — FatMike

I'm not sure I could do damage like that even if I tried....??? Priority mail comes with $50 insurance...time to make a claim. keep the photos.

I scrounged a replacement truck if big mike will be ok running it ... mike?

33.4 grams as it sits, I can drop a lump o lead in the back if wanted...



  • Hey, its a truck ain't it. What's C-10 think? — FatMike
  • I'm cool with it! So sorry that your package got mangled, FM! — 72_Chevy_C10
  • I tend to have 2 kinds of luck, bad luck and no luck. Thanks to Smitty I will be racing. I think Luke knew which side of the box to put his — FatMike
  • looked to me like the big truck absorbed the brunt, saving the lil' rascals... — model40fan

That's ridiculous!  No way should that have happened. Someone must have been having a bad day. 

Nice job steppin' up for him Smitty!

Geez, I have never seen a package damaged that bad, looks as if a crusher got them.  Sorry about that happening to you FM. I have an existing hot wheels diorama of a junkyard, from some playset, still in it's original casting color of gray, you could paint it the colors you wanted, if you would like it let me know and I will mail it you.

Smitty,

 The two teams that came along with mine, ( I realized today I did not put the info in with the cars ) DUH!

The two teams with mine are B&G Racing, (red C cab Ford, and a black J/L 32 ford coupe).

The other is Cortez Racing, ( an orange dodge 1500, and a black 29 Ford sedan).

The team names should be on the bottoms of the entries, and they also have colored dots on them to help keep them together.  Mine have green dots, don't really remember the other two teams dots. Hope they all made it okay.

Landon, (AMH-412)  (Blake and Gavin of B&G Racing),  (Jacob Cortez of Cortez Racing)

I remember middleweights II getting lost for about a week or so...but those came back in fair shape. Truly a bummer. Thanks all for stepping up and helping out with rental units.
