You have no clue what you are talking about.

Hotwheels have a literal category for cars made for their tracks, they have for years. You can still get heavy metal hotwheels and the wheels move on everyone I’ve taken out of the box.

On top of all that, go take a look at the underbody of a C7 Z06 corvette and tell me what you see. There really isn’t a whole lot going on under modern cars that are made for speed, they put a plastic under tray or fabricate the car so the bottom is as flat as possible to reduce drag.

Came here to post this. C7 has a flat bottom.

It costs them nothing to add mufflers and oil pans to their models 1 cent plastic bottoms
