**Hot Wheels Enthusiast Delton Hubbard's Dream Come True**

I've heard several comments about the tracker itself and they come up all the time. There's no way that's real. All that's fake. You know, you just got all this plastic stuff on top of the stock four-cylinder engine, and so when I crank it up, I say, "I don't think it still sounds stock, do it?" But it is all real, 100%. You just gotta see it to believe it.

Thanks everyone for coming. I was just all about bringing the community together. Bringing those car fans. Bringing all those toy fans. All those fans that would gather for the brand for the past 50 years.

Okay, the wood car. Unbelievable craftsmanship. Everything about it was amazing. Great, yeah. But when it's a Hot Wheels that big, it wouldn't be in your face type of car. It wouldn't stand out.

I like the ice cream truck. I think that definitely would be a Hot Wheel. Absolutely. The problem is we're kind of after horsepower here. The Hummer. I think that thing's killer but we've got three rat rods already with dual, you know, so.

The Geo Tracker. That's definitely in the ball park because we've never done one to start with. The Tracker issues would probably be decoration part of it and from a toy perspective would now be docked...

These guys could tone it down a little bit. We could tone it down a little bit. Maybe even take a couple of the Nitrous bottles off. Yeah.

There's some horsepower in here, and that was the theme this year. So we narrowed it down to one car. It's hard to believe. And it is the Chevy Geo Tracker. (crowd cheers)

There's nothing else to describe it. That's a dream come true. When they said Geo Tracker Delton Hubbard all in the same sentence and Hot Wheels, that was it. Dream come true.

**About the Creator**

My name is Delton Hubbard, and today we're at the Hot Wheels show in Charlotte, North Carolina. I'm a retired US Army, and I just build cars on the side as a hobby. It's just a passion. I wouldn't really call it a shop; it's just a backyard garage, something we love to do. It's just driven by the love and the passion of cars and build 'em.

So it's definitely family participation 100%. Well, obviously, I had Hot Wheels when I was younger, and kind of didn't know what I had, you know. You're playing with them and since 1995, it's been an obsession of collecting and collecting and collecting and it's grown outta control.

So we had to move it to the next level would build a life-size Hot Wheels. What I did for the Geo Tracker kind of evolved from just years of Hot Wheel so me and my son, as he got bigger, the Hot Wheels crave got bigger.

So we started looking at 'em and looking at 'em and said what if I build a bigger car to look like a Hot Wheel? So my son he says...

son, as he got bigger,the Hot Wheels crave got bigger.So we started looking at 'emand looking at 'em and saidwhat if I build a bigger carto look like a Hot Wheel?So my son he says, "Gottahave an engine Daddy,"you know, you've gotta have pipes on it"it's gotta look fast.It's gotta sound fast orit won't be a Hot Wheels."That being said,when we first started this project it wasintensively meant to be aHot Wheels themed vehicle.As you can see from the Ghostand that Treasure Hunt symbol.That was done purposelyto be a Hot Wheels.So how else to do it was to go bigger,badder, over the top.So the name evolved Never Enough'cause no matter what we did,it was never enough.The engine has a smallblock Chevrolet 350.It is a real blown, blower engine.The Eagle crank rods.It's just, what I like to say,a big horse power enginein a little toy car.I think there's maybe 11Nitrous bottles on it total.It's a theme behind it of beingnever enough of neverenough Nitrous bottles.Each bottle serves a purpose,like on the engine and on the back.So it's just never enough.My brother and my son said"Do not put a wind up key on it".I said it's a toy!I said 'm putting it on.I said "now it looks more like a toy.It's gotta giant wind up key on the back.So when I started to go in the shows,people they'd come around,they'd go oh my God, Ilove the wind up key.That's what made it.The key is what made it!And I would just look at my brotherand my son and say now you gonna listento the things I say?I came definitely in the spirit of fun.It was a fan of participation 100%.But I gotta be honest,the entire time I had my fingers crossed.I had my toes crossed,and I'm walking aroundlooking at competition,I'm like oh there's somestiff competition out here.There's a lot of HotWheels in this parking lot.And I was worried.And I was sweating, I got picked.And when I got picked it wasliterally a dream come true.It's going down in history nowbecause this is something to sayI built this in my backyard, with my son,and now it's there.I mean it's gonna be apotential Hot Wheels.It's going to Vegas.So that being said, the other guysthat's gonna be competing against this,just pack a lunch and comebecause I'm bringing it.I'm bringing everything I got with it.It's gonna be more polishedthan its ever been polished.It's gonna be more shinedthan its ever been shined.This shirt right here,it's gonna be ironed crisp.I'm bringing my A game.So anybody that's got tostep up beside this Tracker,you better bring it.'Cause like I said. HotWheels, I'm all in, 100%.If I have to push it there,I'm gonna drop the mic when I get there.(upbeat music)
