Hot Wheels
Hot Wheels are a toy car line, aimed mostly at young boys, which strongly appealed to Chris until his late teens. The hobby fit in with his broader interest in fast-racing vehicles, as seen in his related pastimes Mario Kart, Legos, and ModNation Racers.
He has made at least one custom Hot Wheels car, his Sonichu car. It was parodied as merchandise on Jimmy Hill's Sonichu page. Several fake TCG cards he has made have dealt with Hot Wheels-related things.
Today, Chris's interest in Hot Wheels has declined, but he hasn't outgrown it completely. The manchild recreated a number of cars from the toy line in ModNation Racers in July 2010. Upon becoming a tomgirl, Chris got into the cutesy "Squinkies" toys, and planned on buying Hot Wheels for them.
CWC's Vroom-a-Zoom!
On 4 December 2001, Chris created a small Hot Wheels website, CWC's Vroom-a-Zoom! It was possibly his most pathetic site, which is saying something. It linked to his main Sonichu site and his other minor sites. The front page consisted of nothing but the following text and two plugins (now broken):
| View the info. on some of my favorite Hot Wheels cars!
See how they stand on Loop-De-Loops and how they go! You are listening to Cars-'93 Sprint Mix. For more fast and speedy action, visit my other websites! |
A link took one to an unfinished page which he presumably intended to fill with custom cars. He never got beyond the first, his Sonichu car, which he described as:
|
-Very fast. -Compact. -Able to handle Loop-De-Loops. -Very slick. |
The only other time Chris touched the site was in July 2007, when Chris used it as a forum to swear on his autism that he would bring Adam Stackhouse to justice, as he did with all his sites at that time. The site died in 2008 with the hacking of his Tripod Sonichu site. Chris doesn't seem to have been very concerned.
