Mobil 1™ Boost Mobile Racing has today announced HOT WHEELS™ Car Care Products has become an official team partner for the 2018 Virgin Australia Supercars Championship.

HOT WHEELS™ Care Car Products provide premium auto appearance products that clean, enhance and protect, and will soon hit the Australian market after international success.

Through their upcoming product range such as EPIC SHINE™, both Mobil 1 Boost Mobile Racing Commodores will undoubtedly be the best presented cars in pit lane. The gloss black base will be unmissable on the track.

HOT WHEELS™ Car Care Products logo will be seen on both James Courtney’s No. 25, and Scott Pye’s No. 2 for the entirety of the year, starting at this weekend’s Adelaide 500.

HOT WHEELS™ Car Care Products will also be seen on Courtney’s helmet in 2018, taking over as his personal partner for the season ahead.

The product range will be available to purchase online from March, with the inaugural retail partners to be announced in the coming weeks.

Courtney and Pye will hit the track with the HOT WHEELS™ Car Care Products logo on their cars for the first time today around the streets of Adelaide, with practice 1 going green at 9:45am.
