Default Potentially the first Porsche 944 Hot Wheels ever!

The Hot Wheels/ Donut Media video covering the Chicago leg of the tour was released yesterday. Extremely honored to have been chosen in a field of other very deserving builds. We're off to SEMA this year where Widerstandsfahig 001 will be displayed along with the other 14 finalists. The winner of the grand prize will be announced in Vegas. If chosen, 001 will be the first 944 produced by Hot Wheels.

Hot Wheels did a great job working with SEMA to secure a perfect spot outdoors for the cars so all of you Vegas locals can stop in and have a look.

Regardless of the outcome, I've already won. Anything further will just be icing on the cake.

To those of you who have supported my efforts in the past years, you have my utmost gratitude.
