It does, but you have to tweak things for Div5. The bases are supposed to be 2"x1" for Div5 and 3"x1.5" for the bigger cars, but I found that Hot Wheels wouldn't fit on the smaller base sizes. Instead, I just used the standard 3"x1.5" base size for Div5 and decided not to play with any bigger cars.

If I ever do, I'll just go with a standard 3"x1.5" base size for everything. I'm too worried about game balance at this point. The rules make it harder for smaller cars to be hit by gunfire. That's enough of a balance for me.
