As we know, MJ sped up the tempo of some well-known songs. Would you like the same for Hot Street if the song was released?
Given the theme of driving, a fast-paced version of Hot Street would make sense.
Here is a faster version:

and the original from @Beano Wild

Its perfect as it is and it needs releasing officially. One song that does need speeding up a bit imo is "You Rock My World"
 
I think a few extra BPM would help, but generally I think it’s just a very average song by nature. It wouldn’t help much other than to completely reproduce it.
 
I think Hot Street would benefit from some background guitars and maybe a guitar solo.
 
When they were first leaked I'm pretty sure most of the Thriller demos did sound sped up due to tape transference.
I love the faster higher pitch sounds that tape cassettes produce. it’s my favourite way to listen to music💜
having said that, I think ‘hot street’ is incomplete vocally and lyrically. there’s literally a section where michael mumbles and another where he’s off key.
the song is great despite that though. could have been a b side to ‘billie jean’..
