The search for the best custom cars will be a highlight of the 2023 Hot Wheels Legends Tour, with an impressive panel of judges, including rally champion Molly Taylor, motorsports royalty Mad Mike Whiddett, and visual artist Jeswri, providing invaluable insights into the selection process. Also joining the lineup are Hot Wheels designers who will offer specific insights on specific car features and how they’ll work on a 1:64 diecast.
The judges will be on the lookout for the most exceptional and innovative designs that exemplify the spirit of Hot Wheels.
Judges will evaluate all vehicle entrants and finalists on the criteria of creativity, authenticity and garage spirit. Built, not bought, remains the spirit of the Tour, and custom creations of all makes and models, shapes and sizes are encouraged to enter.
