NBC is gearing up this summer season with new unscripted variety shows on primetime ahead of the break that their scripted shows are taking. One of these shows is Hot Wheels: Ultimate Challenge with Rutledge Wood, a variety car transformation competition program that builds up on two passions that many people out there like: These are automobiles and the prolonged childhood/adolescence nostalgia factor for things like toys.
Today, we’re sharing with you details about this show that you should know if you wish to get a hold of it. This show features a panel of judges both from the car customization and design world, as well as celebrity guests joining in to give their opinion. The premise of the show is simple: Teams of professional car builders square off in a series of challenges that turn ordinary cars into extraordinary Hot Wheels-inspired vehicles.
What Are Hot Wheels: Ultimate Challenge About?
In this show, sixteen fans get the chance to come to the show and turn their car into a Hot Wheels. That’s two kinds of competition, a big car and a little car. Each contestant gets to work with a team of automobile mechanics and custom job experts to transform a ride into an eye-popping vehicle and get the chance to win a cash prize and have that car turned into a miniature collectible die-cast model toy car.
The show will be hosted by Rutledge Wood, and will bring on board celebrity guests like Anthony Anderson, cast members from the Fast and The Furious franchise, comedians, and many more surprises to spice things up in the quest for who can build the best car!
