Take a look at this Memphis Cash Days 2025: Big Wheel Street Racing Brings Heat, Horsepower, and Hype!
Big wheel racing returned to the gritty streets of Memphis with the ONLY Big Wheel Cars Street Race – MEMPHIS Cash Days, delivering raw street action, monstrous builds, and a jaw-dropping finale that silenced all doubters. This year’s event raised the bar with more turbocharged beasts, nitrous-fueled monsters, and big personalities competing for cash and clout. Here’s a full breakdown of the highlights, winners, and behind-the-scenes moments that made this race a must-watch.
What Is Memphis Cash Days?
Memphis Cash Days is a grassroots street racing event featuring big wheel cars—classic American muscle or donk-style vehicles with oversized rims (often 24 inches or more) and high-powered setups. Unlike track racing, these ⅛-mile street battles rely on real-world grip, fast reaction times, and street-tuned builds.
Race Highlights & Fan Favorites
🔥 First Turbo Car & Crowd Favorites
The action started with the appearance of a sleek, soft-top turbo car—the first of the night—sparking interest among racers and fans alike. The crowd also welcomed returning builds from previous events, including the legendary “Skins” and his secretive turbo Cutlass.
💥 Skins: The One to Watch
Skins avoided sharing too many details but quickly proved his worth by winning multiple heats. He showcased consistent launches and massive top-end pulls, cementing his place as a semi-finalist.
🐍 Hellcat Dominates Early Rounds
A rowdy Hellcat, known last year for traction issues, shocked everyone by tearing through the field. In one heat, it overtook a Caprice with a three-car lead, leaving jaws dropped and the crowd cheering.
🏁 Camaro vs Cutlass Showdown
Classic matchups between G-bodies and third-gen Camaros defined the early rounds. Wheel spin and traction issues proved costly for some, allowing well-balanced builds to shine.
