Boyd Cottington and Chip Foose were involved in the Twin Mill and as they do look very much alike I would say yes. The toy came out 3 years (1969) after the VXR (1966).

Trivia: The Twin Mill was the first Hot Wheels car which did not follow an existing design. A life size working car was built in 1993.
