Anyone else seen these?
I still have the tie-in game for it.

Yes, I vaguely remember them . The only car I remembered was that truck one.

Seen it, have the Dune Rats Crazy 8 and the Scorchers '70 Road Runner. The movie was kinda cheesy but a darn good movie to spend with kids, or with car fans, who grew up with Hot Wheels. Besides, this is basically what we'd imagine real-life Hot Wheels would be like with all the crazy tracks and whatnot?
That said, this is required now.

I saw it, I think it's more like a a few 12-episode series (IIRC). I saw that "World Race" series.
It was OK for something based off racing cars doing un-possible stunts and had a cool joy-ride vibe to it. Also, the cars' designs didn't suck.
It still was cheesy as hell! Story and dialogues weren't high in the priorities list.

Im only 16, so this was my childhood! I actually still have the DVD on my bookshelf!
And I played the hell out of that game on my dads PC!

Wow. Completely forgot about this. I used to watch this a ton. Its probably buried in some sort of memory box.

Yup, I did. Loved the whole idea behind it, just wished they'd used more real cars, they contrasted nicely with the crazy tracks. I mean, a 1970 Road Runner or a 55 Nomad aren't exactly what you'd expect to see in those futuristic fantasy tracks, and that's why they worked so well in my opinion

Oh man, I wanted to catch these on TV so badly, but didn't get the time way back in 2003.
There was also Planet Hot Wheels, a free-to-play racing game that was cheesy and good fun. Enjoyed it dearly as a toddler.

Not sure how many times I watched that Highway 35 movie, but I loved it every time. I have 5 of the cars in that movie, and the Slingshot, Ballistic, Mega-Duty and the Pontiac Rageous, are among them

That planet HotWheels was fun. Even more fun was crying to my parents when it crashed on our crapbox computer.
