There are two "generations" of Lego Speed Champions kits.
The first one measures slightly under 5 inches long and 2.5 inches wide.

It fits to a roughly 40 mm by 20 mm base, which loosely translates to 5 by 2.5, or a 5X scale car model.

The second generation is wide enough to not fit no a 5 X 2.5 rectangle base.

The only downside to using the Speed Champions line for car models is the scale. 3X Hot Wheels is about as large as you can go without having very skinny arenas, or being suspended over the board by a crane ala Tom Cruise from Mission Impossible.

Any smaller than 12X (which is epic in scale), and the cars look too small to be played on the floor.

It will still *work*, but the sizes will seem tiny.
