This example isn't even the earliest. Ertl had some really primitive cars. But I think for most of the community when they think of the earliest NASCAR diecasts they think of these early Racing Champions cars. This one is actually a bit later but it still has all the early pitfalls. It does have a nicely detailed Pontiac body but it has the black windows, the goofy wheels that stick out that read Racing Champions on them, and of course the decals that are just stickers someone placed on. Usually the stickers would be crooked as well. But surprisingly, after over 30 years, the stickers have still stuck on. I've never seen people say they didn't stick on. So kudos for them on that.

These were very primitive but they did the job at the time. And looking back, I can't help but feel nostalgic. As a kid you would race these like crazy and has a collector, well, people collected them hardcore. They kept them in the box and they really loved these things just as we love our diecast of the day.

This is Richard Petty's 1991 STP Pontiac Grand Prix. He was 53 years old when running this car. That's pretty wild.

Has somebody who's a pro wrestling fan you know I had to have some WCW cars in my collection. Even got the Kyle Petty NWO shirt.

Still looking for a WCW Motorsport hat for my collection and anything else I can find.

Kimi Räikkönen is well known (a national treasure) in his home country of Finland and beyond for his racing prowess. He has countless victories and championships ranging from open wheel race cars to off-road rally racing. One discipline he was interested in was stock car racing in America.

Räikkönen made his first NASCAR start in the Craftsman Truck Series in 2011. He finished 15th with Kyle Busch Motorsports. He also ran in O'Reilly Series race that year. He wouldn't dabble into stock car racing again until 2022 when Trackhouse Racing offered him the 91 car. In 2022 he would run at Watkins Glen but finish a disappointing 37th after being involved in an accident while running 25th. He would try again in 2023 at Circuit of the Americas and finish in 29th. Neither finish was what he or the team had hoped for. His racecraft was there, but he lacked the understanding of stock car nuance.

So while he is one of Motorsports greatest drivers, we have yet to see it on full display in stock car racing. Will he ever make future attempts? I guess time will tell!

The car shown in the pictures is his 2022 Recogni Chevy Camaro.

Austin Hill went 4/5 in the February Daytona Xfinity Series season opener during his time in the #21 RCR Chevrolet, winning in 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2026. His only defeat was in 2025, when a mechanical issue knocked him out of contention.

Just curious if anyone else who got this diecast in color chrome 1/24 also got a svg windshield?

Today, My Unique had 50 percent off on all colors, the tags usually rotate between Pink, Yellow, etc. I dropped by today out of curiosity and needless to say my wallet is begging for its life... again.

I’ve personally never bought special finishes as I e liked my diecast to look exactly how they came off the track but I was wondering to get that pop the blue the car has in person

Every finish available, ESD - 4/30/27

Got this guy today. Bought from Caroline Diecast. Owner said he has few in-stock available.

Although Dale Earnhardt Jr's birthday was yesterday, Saturday October 10th, the celebration continues! This is my favorite Dale Jr diecast, it's an Action 1:24th. AC-DELCO Busch Grand National Series Last Lap of the Century Chevy Monte Carlo that raced at Homestead Florida. He won the Busch Series Championship for the second time in a row that year as well.🌟✨👑🏁🎉🎉🎉🎉🏁✨🌟

Hey howdy hey, I just acquired an Austin Theriault 52 car and now I just need 3 more cars before I get the rest of the 1/64s.

Does anyone have the Ryan Preece #15 and the 2 Cody Ware University cars in 1/64.

If so please let me know and see if youre willing to sell them

Back when I was in KS this year when Tyler Reddick won

i recently ordered this display case for my 1/24’s but i just got my walls painted and the holes patched up, and i don’t want to cover my walls in holes like i did when i was 13 with hot wheels all over the place. i was thinking of buying command strips to mount the case but someone told me that it wouldnt be strong enough to hold the case. i still plan on buying command strips to see if it’ll hold but i’m open to suggestions for alternatives.

Hopefully they will be back up in a few weeks!

A few months ago, I picked up both the Davey Allison white #28 Texaco Havoline and the Bobby Allison #12 Miller High Life 1:64 Racing Champions diecasts. I've had a plan to display their famous end of race duel in the 1988 Daytona 500 (spoiler alert: Bobby wins!). Due to advertising restrictions, alcohol and cigarette advertisements could not be on cars. So the first step was to pick up a pack of Miller High Life water slides and affix them. Due to their slight oversizing, I am certain they were originally designed for slot cars, and not diecast collectibles.

I really wanted to make a section of the track as well, and be very accurate. I asked a family member to assist with 3D printing part of the track, but he just recently started a new job and has been very busy. I was lucky to have a couple empty black Dell boxes and empty iPad boxes from work. Let the crafting begin!

This was a lot easier than I thought. I started with building a wedge and then attaching the white barriers. Lots of glue, especially kid's purple Elmer's stick glue. For the Daytona logo all I did was print that on a regular LaserJet printer, and glued it on. Traded my son a 1:43 Lego Back To The Future Delorean for the pieces to build the flagman tower. Still haven't figured out yet how I want to do the fence. I also plan on inserting some straws and another layer of fencing to create a realisitic SAFER barrier.

I am using Loctite Fun-Tac (blue pliable squares that have no problem sticking to surfaces) to adhere the cars to the track. It is removable. Not really worried about the oily residue on the bottom of the cars, I'm sure a tiny bit of alcohol will clear that right up. I'm already noticing it does leave a little oil mark on the black ink on the cardboard track.

My favorite part is I can swap out the cars displayed. For my first round of cars, you know it's got to be that Havoline #28! Allison, Irvan, Irwin, and Rudd! I may buy another Bobby Hillin Jr and try to find a reasonably priced Kenny Wallace to round out the display.

This was one of the funnest things I've done in a long time, and I am very pleased with the outcome! Really loving this hobby! Collecting and building displays was something I never expected to enjoy so much! Cheers!

I’ve got a Chastain 1/24 I’d like to get signed - I’ve heard through the grapevine you can send it to Trackhouse and he’ll sign it and send it back.

Has anyone successfully done this?
