With the COVID-19 pandemic causing events worldwide to be cancelled and postponed, many are closing to go digital, like what AutomotiveMap did with the Virtual Car Show a few weeks ago. The Hot Wheels Legends Tour was supposed to be coming to a city near you this spring and summer. Now, it’s also going digital with this week’s tour stop happening on Hoonigan’s YouTube channel or Hot Wheels’ Facebook page instead of in a parking lot.

Starting at 9 a.m. PST on May 16, audiences can watch live judging from a panel consisting of top motorsports athlete Colette Davis, Hoonigan auto experts, and Hot Wheels designers. The finalist from the Hot Wheels Legends Tour virtual stop will join all other Legends Tour finalists at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas in November for a chance to have his or her car immortalized as an iconic Hot Wheels die-cast.

But the fun doesn’t end there. Honda is bringing the Honda Super Tuner Legends Series – the custom tuner component of the Tour – to the digital stop. The Legends Tour digital stop will feature select custom-tuned Honda vehicles, where one custom-tuned Honda vehicle will be selected as a “Honda Super Tuner Finalist”.

All finalists will then compete to earn the “Honda Super Tuner” title, which includes an opportunity to display their vehicle at the 2020 SEMA Show in Las Vegas, November 3-6, 2020.

Last year’s Super Tuner winner was “Nashhole”, a 1957 Nash Metropolitan owned by Greg Salzillo and Dave Ford that earned its ticket to the finals at the Los Angeles event. Hot Wheels enthusiasts can expect to see a miniature replica of the “Nashhole” in stores in 2020.
