Not much info online about these, and there is no mention of the HWR "Hot Wheels Racing" Model, so please look at pictures closely and ask questions before purchase:

Hot Wheels go-kart was a small, but brightly colored go-kart sold by Sams Club in the early 2000s. The logo says "HotWheels" and the model was "R1nx" or "RInx". It had a small gas powered OHV HowHit engine. The left rear wheel is connected to the driveshaft through a clutch. The right rear wheels is connected to an unassisted disk brake. Controls are attached to the steering wheel. Gas is a green lever on the left, break is the red lever on the right.

Manufacturer and support

Hotwheels (Matel's) customer support explains that the go kart was made by Liberty Group, which went out of business. The leftover parts were handed over to Tomberlin Group. They on the other hand claim to sell only the "reducing gears".

Modifications

As you can see on the pictures in the following two links, it is possible to replace the engine. The owner however had to modify motor mounts to get it to fit.

Collecting the award was Ian Callum, Jaguar's Director of Design, who said, "With the C-X16 concept, we set out to move Jaguar's award-winning design language on to the next generation, creating a car that is the very essence of future Jaguar performance." John Murdoch, association president, declared: "Many of these show stunners don't see the light of day but they are valuable for gauging public reaction to new ideas.

Former Volkswagen and Renault designer Markus Haub has merged photography, painting and digital effects to create a 'Racing Legends' series, which focuses on racecars from the 1960s and ‘70s. Haub, a Pforzheim University graduate, who now teaches at the Barcelona campus of the Instituto Europeo di Design school (IED) when not producing his unique artwork, uses software to manipulate his photography which is then printed and made into a collage. He then works into it with paint and other artists' tools, creating what you can see here.
